Using a remaindered vase I echoed the mosaic colors (yellow, pink and a little blue) with late summer flowers from the garden.

Flowers include: Dahlias, faded hydrangea heads, Japanese anemones, clematis.

Our average first frost doesn’t typically come until November, but October days can be damp, dank and cold, shutting down flower development.  So we’ll see what the weeks will bring but til then we have this perhaps last glimpse of late summer.
