I always make the rounds of the garden in early November putting together bouquets that are mostly fresh leaves and dried seedheads. I did three of them on Nov. 8 and they are all still looking good. Leaves are from assorted Geraniums and Heucheras, Epimediums and Helleborea, Columbine, and a spiky Foxglove stem.

Gotta enjoy it while you've got it. Quite nice.

It's absolutely stunning. I learned through my challenge of making a bouquet a week tis summer and (some of) fall, that the ones I loved the most were those that were harder to come by. I think is qualifies.

Really pretty! Especially with the painting above it. Does 'last bouquet' mean frost and/or snow has arrived?
