Lingering Summer


September has been a beautiful month, full of hot days and cool nights, sunshine and flowers! Yes, my flowers are still going strong, in fact, the delphiniums are blooming again, as is the lavender. I went out this morning and took time to smell the beautiful roses. I cut this bunch of lavender for drying to use in some sachets.

I'm spending today doing some sewing and crafting - hopefully I'll have something to show soon.

  2. I just re-read your September 21st post. Thank you again. It is not only beautiful, but inspiring.

    Now I'm looking at your lavender and thinking (enter jealousy, not a very attractive or charitable sentiment I admit): "Hers are much more purple/mauve than mine, maybe I better rush out and cut my winter bouquets."

    What do you think? I hope it's not too late. All I know is yours are prettier than mine.

    All the best,
    Tish

  4. Hi Lorrie,

    That lavender is really pretty. I can't wait get some flower gardens established here at the farm. It would be nice to have fresh colorful fragrant bouquets occasionally.

    Thanks for sharing
