Autumn Flowers for Cutting

A vase full of colourful autumn blooms is perfect to brighten up a dull afternoon. Orange and Purple Dahlias and Salvia viridis combined with a few stems of foliage… Hedera helix, Eucalyptus gunnii and Arum italicum make a cheerful bunch.

It was a lovely sunny morning just perfect for taking a few photos outdoors. Being outside in the sun and a bunch of beautiful flowers in these lovely bright shades made me feel so happy.
But now the sky is dark with rain clouds.
At least I have my sunshine in a vase for the house.

It seems like our lovely long  spell of mild weather is over now and we can expect very low night time temperatures this week.
Oh well… it had to end sometime I suppose. And there’s always next year to look forward to. What should I grow next year I wonder?           What are you planning to grow in your garden next year? Gillian
