In a Vase on Monday – Remember

“But the days grow short when you reach September.” –Maxwell Anderson

It’s the end of summer around here as school starts tomorrow. But the summery weather, with whiffs of fall, will remain for a while. And I am remembering these days.

I am using what is prolific right now in my garden. Lots of predominantly white cosmos this year. There were a few double cosmos like these. I love their frilly appearance.

And of course this lovely dahlia I showed you last week, Night Butterfly. It is a reliable bloomer.

A sweet little vase as we transition with the seasons.

As we move into a new season, join my co-author, Beth Stetenfeld, and me through our book A Journey of Seasonal Wisdom.

With this vase, I am linking in with the wonderful meme, In A Vase On Monday, from Cathy at  Rambling in the Garden.

  3. Your cosmos have done well – mine gave up early in July with the heat – and they form a pretty accompaniment for that intriguing dahlia

  4. I haven’t had much luck with Cosmos the last few years but I shall definitely look for that ‘Night Butterfly’ dahlia next year.

    1. I think my cosmos are doing well because of all our rain…definitely look for the dahlia. They likely will still have it here, Hudson Valley Seed Company.
