is this the last bouquet i’ll ever pick before winter hits?
I just snipped what might be my final bouquet before the cold sets in. The colors are wild—zinnias, cosmos, and a few rogue sunflowers. Every year, I try to stretch the season by covering my plants with old sheets when the forecast threatens frost. It actually works most of the time! Plus, I always plant a few extra seeds in late summer, just in case. That way, there’s a surprise bloom or two when I least expect it.
Nothing beats the feeling of bringing fresh flowers inside, especially when you know they might be the last for months. My kitchen smells like summer, even if my toes are freezing. If you’ve never tried growing your own, trust me, it’s worth it for moments like this.
