Last week’s frost wiped out the garden and now all of the tender annual plants are brown mush. Here’s a bouquet I made with the last of the annuals I picked before the frost for #AYearInFlowers.
This centerpieces includes: garden roses, zinnias, flowering tobacco, cosmos, jewels of opar, yarrow, abelia and viburnum foliage.
The goal of the #AYearInFlowers project is to highlight and celebrate what’s growing or blooming in gardens across the globe each week.
How to participate in #AYearInFlowers

2) Post.

On Facebook, upload your photo as a comment under my weekly post.
3) Share.
