Pam ddim gwahanol fathau o flodau na'r hen gynlluniau?”En: “The world is changing. Why not different types of flowers than the old designs?”Cy: Llwybrodd Eira ei thrwyn.

"Efallai, bydda'n bosibl i gyfuno."En: She turned to her brother as much from emotional connection as from practical needs. "Maybe, it will be possible to combine."Cy: Rhoddodd Dafydd feddwl.

There was depth in his deliberation as he considered the new theories that today's members could coexist with the traditional ones.Cy: "Beth os ydyn ni'n dechrau gyda phrif llamig ei cynlluniau——dwy res o lywyseni, dwy res o dalarwydd ——ac ychwanegu rywfaint o bocsaen lliwgar?"En: "What if we start with the main lines of her designs——two rows of lilacs, two rows of daffodils——and add some colorful bedding plants?"Cy: Bryd hynny, eglurodd y tywydd, ac roedd y golau yn fwytegen.En: Then, the weather cleared, and the light was brighter.Cy: Eira chwarddodd, ei galon yn llaith. "Byddai Nain yn siŵr o garu'r syniad."En: Eira laughed, her heart light.
