Fresh Flowers

This week I got to work with fresh flowers on a cake.  I love fresh flowers in vases around the house.  I just had a "make your own bouquet" table at our neighborhood block party.  But I have always been iffy about fresh flowers on cake.  Sure...they are beautiful.  But...still iffy.  Whatever my personal opinion is, I think this cake for a 65th birthday party came out pretty great.  How do you feel about fresh flowers on desserts??
