Thanks, everyone. Candee - the foxtail ferns are imitations of Sue's rosemary spikes, and the layers of greenery is inspired by Terri's choisya leaves. Must have done a good job "stealing" without being caught... LoL.

One of my favorite plants this time of the year is one that I found at a plant sale held by UC Davis arboretum folks. It is a Kniphofia (red-hot poker), variety Christmas Cheer. And, it has reliably bloomed for the last three Christmases. Took this photo this morning, and it has at least 15 spikes.
