Arranging wild flowers: Virgin’s bower

Virgin’s bower (クレマチスバージニア)

Found these little white flowers in back alley. It has been still hot in Oklahoma, but they are very refreshing to my eye to feel a little bit of coolness.  Fall is very close.

On the summer evening, the clouds with the evening shower have gone. Now higurashi(cicadas) are singing in the mountain where the sun is setting.
