Flowering Tea

I promised you pictures of my new teapot and the flowering teas. I do not disappoint. I don't know if you are aware of this, but making a good pot of tea takes an immense amount of work. I feel I should be given an award for all of the effort I put into this beautiful experience. (Please click on the images to be taken to my Flickr site where they are larger, if you want to see more detail. It's really neat.)
