Labor Day might signify the unofficial end of summer for us humans, but our many-petaled friends know better than to think we’ve entered fall just yet. In New York, September means farmers’ markets full to bursting with dahlias, zinnias, and sunflowers—not to mention a slew of tinier cutting flowers. Wearing riotous shades of fuchsia, magenta, green, and gold, September’s farm flowers are not for the color shy.
Gardenista editor Erin stopped by the prettiest stand at the Greenmarket recently and bought one of the expertly arranged bouquets made by the farmers at the Queens County Farm Museum.
Above: The Queens County Farm Museum sells at the Union Square Greenmarket every Friday. You can expect similarly beautiful arrangements to be available for the next few weeks before the bouquets will take on decidedly more autumnal hues.
