In a Vase on Monday - Burgundy

Because we can still enjoy the presence of some beautiful burgundy mums in our garden, it would have been a pity not to highlight this elegant colour in a vase. The rest are some summer ”leftovers” (blue Salvia, a pink rose bloom), a few grasses, some pinky white mums, seed heads of Iris Sibirica and Allium and a dry Astilbe spike.

  2. The burgundy chrysanthemums are really pretty - I like their slight spikiness - and It is intriguing to what other leftovers you have found...we are becoming more inventive as the year goes on!

    1. I have had for many years and by that time I was not so much interested to know the names of the plants I was buying. Could be Christmas Burgundy, but I am not sure.Thanks, Chloris!

  6. That colour is gorgeous - reminds me of a Scabiosa I had in the summer. A gorgeous mix of seedheads, grass and last flowers for late autumn. :)

  7. That's a lovely vase and especially like the burgundy chysanthamums, looks great with the grasses, and autumnal too.
