October 15

Its one of those mid October days where summer lingers.  It’s warm out, foggy and  damp, and the sun is trying to break through.  We have only had a light frost so there is much that is still blooming in the garden.  Not for long though.

From a distance, the garden looks like this  – getting a bit tired

But up close we have this  – mums and asters and dahlias

A close up of the mums  – these are from my mom – I’ve had them for decades

Smoke bush, sedum and iris foliage

P1120805

Marigolds, celosia, and wild flowers

P1120807

Allium – I think this one is “Ozawa”

P1120809

Toad lilies, salvia, and a black eyed susan

P1120812

Gorgeous blue monkshood

P1120813

Some campanula and other offerings from the rock garden

And a rose to round out the tour

  1. Wow, you still really have lots of color and blooms. I simply love your full garden shots, instead of a flower here and a flower there.
