My garden seems to be full of fennel and has lovely seed heads, had a few angelica and alliums as well but the rain seems to have finished those off.

For some reason I just can't bear to get rid of them. At least once a year on a rainy day I get them all out on the floor and spend hours poring over the pages.... bliss!

I have an allium seedhead ready to spray silver as a Christmas decoration, a suggestion I got from Sarah Raven's catalogue, which you also pointed me in the direction of in a previous post.
