Summer Flower Garden Bouquet

July 16, 2015

Today I'm sharing how I love to use simple Ball Mason jars as vases for my garden flowers.

I've been so excited waiting for my summer flower garden to bloom. I planted it pretty much on a wing and a prayer and really didn't know what to expect since this was my first attempt at raised bed gardening. I've got some gorgeous blooms to share with you today, and hopefully I'll have some advice on planting a flower garden in general once it gets a bit later in the summer. You might remember my sneak peek of the flower garden a few weeks ago. Today I have many more blooms to share in the form of my first summer garden bouquet.

As usual I used one of my vintage mason jars as the vase.

I've got begonias, anemones, zinnias and gerberas. Not bad for a novice flower gardener.

The colors are just spectacular. I can't decide which flowers I love more -- my hydrangeas, or these! I love being able to go right outside and cut some pretty flowers to brighten up our days. Winters here in the Midwest are pretty unforgiving, which I guess makes the summers all the sweeter. What's your favorite summer flower? Are you a flower gardener? Stay tuned for more updates on my beauties!

Well, that's it for today, friends!
