Even though it seems we're never going to get a real frost in the tri-state area I've been cutting all my container gardens back. Last week I brought in cuttings from all my favorite coleus plants. I used some of them in this arrangement (along with a few begonia leaves, salmon ranunculus, red spray roses, eucalyptus pods, and lucedendron pods) some of them I'm rooting in the window to make new plants. I'll start them inside and then put them out again in the spring. I love coleus of all kinds and colors.
And the giveaway! I don't have photos yet, but today we're playing with the most phenomenal ranunculus - pale yellows with purple tips. If you leave a comment, you'll enter to win an arrangement with these beauties delivered to home or work (Manhattan or Brooklyn) tomorrow, Friday the 19th. Good Luck!

The Columbia campus has some gorgeous coleus that I pass every day and I kind of wanted to steal some before it got wilty last week but didn't and now seeing this arrangement I deeply regret my decision. Not that I have all the pretty flowers (ranunculus! and those dark purple... scabiosa? I don't even know) you have to work with either... Ah well, one can dream!

I recently got married and used ranunculus for my bouquet. My florist used your blog as a huge inspiration for our flowers. It would make my husband and me so so happy to be reminded of our day in September again.
"Ranunculus, ranunculus, ranunculus," is difficult to say.
