early summer garden bouquets

I've been off adventuring with some great florists this spring and am finally getting back to business here in Jeff City. We've had some good rains lately and the garden is responding very well (over responding in some areas.) Here are 2 hand tied bouquets from the backyard. Top is a hand tied clutch bouquet of; dianthus (sweet william), coreopsis, cornflower, monarda (horsemint), vinca vine, lemon balm, spirea and a hosta leaf. Next is a small arm bouquet of; delphinium, monarda, dianthus, cornflower, scabiosa and campanula (bellflower.)

back to the backyard

First florissimo post of all flowers from the garden this year! Beautiful foxglove, snapdragons, iris, spiderwort ans sweet william make up the cool color palette.  

Happy Easter!

Daffodil topiary with some dianthus and columbine. However you celebrate (or don't) enjoy this day, and remember flowers love you!
