Here is Davina the cat with the latest bouquet from the garden. This is a small posy of rose, verbena, hydrangea, sweetpea with box and twisted willow. 

Box stems last for weeks in a vase, I cut these about 20 days ago and they’re still looking bright. I like how the edges are just starting to yellow, reminding me autumn is in the air.

I also like how the ‘keep smiling’ Rose is still producing beautiful big yellow blooms. This variety has been even better than I’d hoped.
