This week’s theme is BEAUTIFUL.

The September long weekend is one of my favourite times of the year. The garden is in full bloom.

I’m kind of old fashioned in that I like old-lady flowers like dahlias and black-eyed susan (don’t ask me the Latin names ’cause I don’t know).

I like to plunk them all together in a vase. I think the contrasting colours are beautiful.

    It’s always nice to pick flowers from the garden and display them inside your house.

    I’m not sure if my earlier comment went through. I hope I don’t double post. It’s always nice to pick flowers from your own garden and display them in your house.

    Hi Larry.
    I’m trying to catch up on Photo Hunt! LOL
    Heck it’s almost time to start hunting for the next week’s photo for Saturday…but I just had to stop by and visit with you.

    Yes!!! The flowers ARE so very beautiful. Love the vivid colors and the warm glow the autumn flowers have in arrangements like this one you shared.

    Hope your week is treating you well.
