Behold the summer bouquets: Volume 7

My garden is my most beautiful masterpiece.
– Claude Monet, founder of French impressionist painting

We are on the edge of autumn, although summer is trying to hang on. My last bouquet was a few weeks ago, but I have memories of the last gasp of my dahlias. So as a way to say goodbye to summer, I present my last three bouquets. Enjoy!
