OUT IN THE FALL GARDEN

 Can you believe October is here?  I made a
bouquet with whatever I could find.
I have been doing some garden cleanup. I actually removed my zinnias earlier than usual but found a few orange ones.  



Those are sure fallish colors!


My blue hydrangeas barely survive the summer
heat in Missouri so I water them almost
daily. Since it has finally cooled down,
they are now blooming.





I decided to plant those "Knock Out" roses in
our front yard so I hope they do well.  
Here in Missouri where August through
September is very hot, they seem to
do well.
 







The acorns are large!


 Mid-October update:
Now I've picked up over
250 pounds of acorns and
walnuts!

  1. So lovely to see your flowers. Here it's been in the 40's in the morn and I only have one lantana and a few tall zinnia hanging on. The sedum are over already and I'm dead heading them. I have 5 walnut trees so I'm now picking up buckets of them too. Happy October.
