Earlier this year we set aside an area in the fruit garden for some cut flowers and I put in 24 Dahlias of unknown type and colour and 24 Chrysanthemums which were cuttings from 6 plants bought from Sarah Raven last year. Cathy has just been in the garden and picked 3 vases full for the house. I am thrilled! It makes everything worthwhile.
The Gladioli are spectacular and cost me £2.99 for 35 corms. Bargain!
Loads more to cut in the next few months and the sweet peas are still going strong as well.
All is well with the world today.

Love the colour combinations in the first picture, these are definitely my colours, orange and red just don’t do it for me somehow.
