It’s high berry season here and clearly I’ve got juicy jewel tones on my mind. This week’s design includes massive raspberry-colored peonies (juicy and fragrant), delicate delicious old-fashioned “pinks” (dianthus), ‘Double Click Cranberry’ cosmos, a swizzle of pink veronica, and a pop of blueberry from Eryngium ‘Big Blue’ for extra punch. All that’s missing is the scoop of vanilla ice cream to make it sweet summery heaven!

What’s blooming in your backyard this week? Feel free to add a link to your own Backyard Bouquets in the comments section below. If you are on Instagram, be sure to use the hashtag #backyardbouquets to join in the fun. I’d love to see what everyone is growing and creating!
The only “rule” is that all the elements in the arrangement must be sourced locally, within a 25 mile radius. Your own backyard is a great place to start!!
