With the exception of a flagging Jerusalem artichoke flower, yesterday's windowsill conglomeration is still looking fine--if funky! Below it (in second photo) is little bouquet I'm going to give a friend for her birthday today. It includes Rudbeckia triloba, that tiny little black-eyed Susan I've used over and over again this summer, scented geranium leaves (which I've also used over and over this summer), orange/brown marigolds (which I'm using for the first time--more on them later, I'm sure), and Hydrangea tardiva (white flowers).  Prettier in real life than in photo, but I've got to stop saying that!
