Hi List,
I am writing about a winter wedding in 1830 New England. What might a
bride carry in lieu of a bouquet? My fuzzy California brain
remembers/guesses something like "bittersweet," which I assume is a
woody herb?
Bittersweet is a woody plant that produces dramatic orange-red seed pods
that usually stay on the plant into the winter. I can remember my
mother using it in dried flower arrangements.
