On Mother's Day they handed these flowers out after church to all the mothers. Mine above has lasted quite a while, carnations do that.
So have you heard the latest marketing slogan, it's BOGO, meaning buy one get one free. Our language is changing and fast!
Hope you are enjoying your long weekend if you live in Canada.

Great flower. Not much BOGO over here! Hugs, Valerie
You put the carnation in the perfect vase - beautiful!
We got little potted roses at our village- event on mother's day and they are fairly pretty and blooming well.
We not often get"BOGO" offerings here in Austria - we would say KEKE in German-lol. But we have many English terms meanwhile in our Austrian German here. So I think they would call it BOGO here as well.---
Happy day!
Hugs, Susi
We have the same tradition in our church on Mothers' Day.
God bless.
Carnations are such a sweet and beautiful flower. They remind me of my first corsage that I received.
I had never heard of BOGO...until now :)
Lovely carnation - lovely gesture by your church.
I have never heard of BOGO either. What next?
OH BOGO has been a saying for a long while here in the states but you are correct the langauage is forever changing.
That is a lovely flower. Carnations are favourites of mine because they last so long.
i have never heard of BOGO - but we do have the buy one get one free thing - especially at Rite Aid.
Lovely flower.
Our stores have been advertising BOGO sales for years.
I got a carnation too from the restaurant where we ate. It's also still alive.
I can remember back when I was a little girl, our church handing out carnations to the moms. It's a nice tradition.
BOGO - ha ha! Love that carnation.

That's a lovely flower ...
All the best Jan
