Time does fly here, I can't believe we are nearly into October.. but today is lovely and not at all Autumnal.
and then there is the lovely Fennel flower, this has been a favourite plant of mine this year, I can't recommend it enough.
This Rose is a David Austin Rose called 'Port Sunlight' I only planted it 6 months ago, (relevant post here) and its already quite established plus this is it's second flowering,
I picked up this old jar from a car boot sale, I love the label, although I think I would of rather it said Paris then Pickles :)
Good morning Debs, your flowers are simply beautiful. I love your compositions too and the pickle jar! Have a lovely Monday, love Linda x
ReplyDeleteYour Roses are lovely. Beautiful vignettes.

So beautiful! You have a wonderful sense of style.
ReplyDeleteGood Morning Deb. Not only did i over sleep i forgot Mr. linky.
ReplyDeleteNow I'm running around trying to right my wrong.
I love that pickle jar, better than Paris any day.
And that rose is delicious.

just beautiful. the flowers and photography.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful flowers, Deb. And, I love the pan with the shell-fluted design. Bet it makes a lovely ... something yummy!
ReplyDeleteAm thinking of adding a David Austin rose next year, so happy to see yours doing so well.
Your roses are gorgeous and so great that they still have some time to bloom. I love your jars too, everything looks beautiful.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your week!

Beautiful photographs. And I love those salt and pepper shakers.
ReplyDeleteDeb, lovely combinations of lush roses and vintage gorgeousness! Hoping this wonderful warm weather means roses for a little longer... Bxx

Everything looks so nice, with such an English countryside flavour. I would never get tired of the atmosphere.

ReplyDeleteBeauty abounds in your cottage...you have such a keen eye for detail.
ReplyDeleteLove the rose.
I love your new rose. The color of a peach. Beautiful choice. Lovely photos. Humble bungalow said it true, you have a keen eye for
ReplyDeletedetail.
Lovely photos and I adore the pickle jar. I agree the Fennel flower is super and looks great in floral arrangements. The Fennel plant grows very big. I had one planted in a small area that it out grew and I remember wrestling like crazy with it to get it out - it felt like I was doing battle with a Triffid!
ReplyDeleteLove the roses, hungry for pickles.
ReplyDeleteGoodness, you take nice photos...
ReplyDeleteLove your little dabs of flower beauty.

What a clever combination: I'm sure the pickles would have included some Fennel seeds, so, they really do belong together.
ReplyDeleteIt is a beautiful label. At first glance I thought it was toilet water and was then surprised to read pickles. Perhaps product marketing could return to aesthetically pleasing labelling.

Hi Deb, love your photos and your little pickles jar...and your salt n pepper shakers...the roses are lovely. I have iceberg standards and carpet roses at home in Melbourne...though God only knows how badly the standards will need pruning...the kids aren't really into gardening....but they are such a prolific flowerer. Robx
ReplyDeleteI'm off today to take some Autumn photos...have been a bit slack with my blog lately...just can't seem to get interested...perhaps some Autum colour will helpx
Do you find the fennel has done exceptionally well this year? Ours has, can't remember it doing this well before, and lots of new plants have appeared in the garden, often quite a distance from the original one or two.
ReplyDeleteLovely blog and beautiful photographs Deborah,
ReplyDeleteI have really enjoyed my visit and will be back again soon.
Hope that you are having a good Tuesday.

Hi Debs, many thanks foe your visit and comments. Yes, I have a little bit of old blue and white but would like a few more pieces. Have a great week, the weather is incredible here today, so warm and sunny. I'm hoping my passionflower might be persuaded to open it's flowers. Love Linda x
ReplyDeleteDeb- flowers always make a house more special. Your photos are absolutely beautiful. I love the backdrop collage that you made- so creative. Always- always your pictures make me say WOW!!

Hi Deb, where are you...I hope all is well and that you're just having a break from blogging. I've been very slack myself...can't get too interested at the moment...a bit hormonal and homesick. However, we are going home for a visit in Feb, so I will miss a whole month of winter here...yay!! If you want to chat, my email is paul.heesterman@sky.com Robx
ReplyDeleteHey Deb,
ReplyDeleteAre you okay? You're being terribly quiet - which, of course, you're quite entitled to be!! But I thought I'd let you know that I'm thinking of you...and hoping things are good...
