After a long hard working summer and my flowers are in full bloom, we are heading south for the winter. Won't miss the cold weather that is hot on our heels with temps. here in the 50/60 dergrees but will miss the fall colors that are now coming into full eye pleasing rainbows of color. This also brings the FALLING LEAVES. Yet one more reason to get out side for a last chance to enjoy indian summer before the snow. We will not miss the snow but the late warm weather is always a joy to go to the roadside stands and get the produce of fall and devower the apples and fresh vegetables of the season.
A rouge sunflower found it way into one of my flower boxes at the back door. Had I planted it there may not have been such a great bloom. Will give the head to daughter for her winter birds this winter.
Ah, the last rose of summer! How I love my roses. And this year these roses gave me long stems. What a show off they were!
They almost climbed over the arbor. Maybe next year.
