We haven't had a hard frost or freeze at our property yet, so I grabbed a few items for a couple of bouquets. In addition to the Zinnias, Cosmos, and Hostas that I often use, I added some new items I haven't included much.
The tall grass sprigs are Hakone (Hakonechloa macra). Many Hakone stems were eaten by rabbits, but I rescued a few for both vases.
I also plopped a few 'Ozawa' Alliums (A. thunbergii) into the pink grouping. Though we haven't had truly cold temperatures (below 32F) yet, the tropical annuals in pots are slowly fading. And all the plants I'm overwintering are inside the sunroom. It's almost time to hunker down for the cold season ahead.
To see more floral and plant arrangements from around the world, head on over to "In a Vase on Monday" at Rambling in the Garden.
