Flowers in the House







































Time does fly here, I can't believe we are nearly into October.. but today is lovely and not at all Autumnal.








 
Today its Flowers in the House at Jane's, so I had my pick of Roses to choose from as the Roses in my garden are flowering again with abundance.  Here is 'Iceberg' a lovely delicate creamy white Rose which always looks so natural in a vase.

















































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 :)

  15. 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!

    Love your little dabs of flower beauty.

  17. What a clever combination: I'm sure the pickles would have included some Fennel seeds, so, they really do belong together.
    It 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.

  18. 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.

    I'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

  19. 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.

  30. 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

  31. Hey Deb,

    Are 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...
