All those mulberry leaves from yesterday looked absolutely awful this morning, so I threw them out. This handfull of material went into the vase almost exactly as you see it arranged here. It includes pokeweed and scented geranium foliage, some okra pods and foliage, yellow Jerusalem artichoke flowers, and one beautiful American wisteria stem (no flowers, just foliage). That's actually the prettiest part of the arrangement, but you can't see it in this photo. The wisteria vine goes off to left where you can't see it.
