What’s Blooming: 091110

Fall is in the air. While I loved all of the flowers that are available over the summer, I’m ready for fall. I’m ready for darker, deeper colors and textures. Not to mention-I’m ready for cooler temperatures.

Here’s a glimpse of what cut flowers are available in B-more this week.
