Garden's Last Bounty

On October 24th, I took this arrangement to garden club for the horticultural display.  I used the last of the blooms in the garden to fill the small Nantucket lightship basket:  mums, Sedum 'Autumn Joy', daisies, balloon flowers, lavender, heuchera leaf, sweet potato leaf, a gerbera daisy, some fountain grass, sage and rosemary.  I called it "Last Bounty".  The basket now sits empty on my windowsill reminding me of the scents, and colors, and textures of the garden that filled my summer but will just be memories until spring comes again.
