SEPTEMBER BLOOMS

We bought our Fall Mums last week
and got them in the ground.
When I planted them the blooms were
barely peeking out...
this week full force.

We prefer the sunny yellow ones,
they seem to go better with our decor
and are a bit hardier.

Here is one I put in the ground last year.
It's coming along nicely.

Purple Asters are out and about,

as are the yellow ones.
Both were planted as seeds a couple of years ago.

The guy at the local nursery said to dead head and
fertilize your Knockout Roses now and
they will bloom until
November.

I still have Lantana and my Monkey Grass is blooming.

Next door at my neighbors,
Hydrangea is still showing off.

Lastly, my Hardy Begonia is
pretty in pink.

Happy Gardening.

I will be linking with
Fishtail Cottage's
Cottage Flora Thursday

GARDEN ACCESSORIES

I've been out walking the garden to see what's blooming on these cool

October days and nights.

Here's some Hardy Begonia.

A little Goldenrod.

Pretty pink Roses.



Purple Asters.

Pink Morning Glory.

As I was strolling I started looking at all my garden accessories and wondering...

...do I have too many?

A painted rock, I did myself.

An artist I'm not!

A cast-away basket.

A broken plant stake I've added twigs for antlers.

Twig baskets hung in trees.

My five dollar yard sale find.

Another old bench that's not sturdy enough for sitting.

My toad house made from a broken pot.

Little wicker bird houses.

One of five kitty statues.

Two of five.

My pop of blue, blue bird house.

Bird stake.

And then I think...no, I don't have too much.

My garden ROCKS!

Happy Gardening.
