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.

Broom corn in shades of green and brown.

 

Velvety coxcomb (sometimes called Brain Celosia)

Pretty, feathery plume celosia.

Hairy balls or Monkey Balls

Zinnias-still-in every color!

Dark brown millet with bright greenish/yellowish speckles.

Great, long stemmed marigolds.

And of course, dahlias. My favorite fall flower.

All of these beautiful flowers are available through Locust Point Flowers. They can be found at the Waverly Farmers Market every Saturday morning. Go see them! Buy some flowers!
