Lovingly grown, fresh, natural flowers from my urban Ottawa garden
The days are getting shorter, there is a chill in the air in the mornings and I’ve even noticed some trees starting to change colour. All this means the seasons are moving on and we are rapidly heading towards fall.
So far my garden has escaped the frost and I still have flowers.
I will be at Parkdale Market on Saturday September 19th from 9- 1 with mixed seasonal bouquets, pretty jars of flowers and hydrangea bouquets ready for enjoying or for drying.
Hope to see you there!
Here is your chance to get a look behind the scenes as I share a tour of my suburban back yard cutting garden in the Mooney’s Bay area of the city of Ottawa.
