Flower arrangement: two large apricot roses in a vase with deep purple-red ice plants and the dried papery heads of honesty. It is a very autumnal display, resting on a table runner in shades of orange and slate grey, a wooden bowl of yellow-red apples to the left, and wooden shelves filled with nicknacks and pictures beyond

#GardenFlowers confession: B put this together, not me. In my defence these roses were growing so high up over a shed roof I couldn’t even see them. So useful having a tall person around. #MondayRoses

Items on a wooden shelf against a pale background. L to r a stylised fox or ginger cat statuette, an antique brown earthenware pot containing dried grasses and seed heads, a small vintage glass paste jar with a singe bright orange and yellow rose.

Close up of the dried grasses and seed heads, focusing on some grasses with dangling seed heads that look a little like hops

#GardenFlowers I was so delighted by these nodding grasses (grown by accident - I emptied all my old unlabelled seed packets into pots & had a lucky dip of germinators) that they prompted me to try a perpetual arrangement. And my new oranges & lemons rose finally flowered! Happy autumn #MondayRoses

Haven’t done a #GardenFlowers in ages so here’s some #MondayRoses - only the reds in any number now, all a bit sun-crisped!

Several deep pink roses in a clear glass bottle - some are full open, others are just buds, each is in a shirt stem that twists and turns so all the flowers are at off angles, against a black background.

A wooden trig completely filled with piles of red and pink roses. Resting on a messy block paving patio. A pigeon looks on.

#MondayRoses it’s just buckets & buckets of reds & these fun “sculptural” pinks who’ve made twisted shapes to try to reach the light climbing in an archway (and had to be trimmed because of wind/rain damage). #MrHat cameo. #GardenFlowers

must've been quite a monday when I spelt roses wrong... #MondayRoses

Top down photo of about half a dozen roses, and some buds, in a base. The top of the base is just visible, the roses are shades of pink , yellow and apricot against a grey concrete surface.

‘Tis the season again - some of the first blooms survived the heavy rain!
