In my garden, I came upon a larkspur blooming on 10/24/2012. What a surprise! Most of the larkspur are long gone - and gone to seed. Isn't it pretty?
The other surprise is this Missouri evening primrose (sundrops). This plant is one of two I purchased late in the season and planted in one of the border beds. I was pleasantly surprised to see it bloom, and also surprised at the size of this bloom.
The rudbeckia continue to produce a few blooms here and there.
Still-life: Crimson leaves
The glory of mums. This, too, is at the neighor's house.
Scarlet crabapples, bounty for birds, deer, and squirrels
I still have a few pansies in the garden. However, colder temperatures are forecast so this may be their last hurrah.
I can't get enough of this view of the various colors of mums and a boulder. My neighbor made a pretty bed, didn't she?
Have you noticed that redbud leaves are heart-shaped? So are violet leaves...
A heart necklace, perhaps?
Or just plain old "garden art" lol
By the way, today is "Make a difference day." What will you do to make a difference? In a future post, I'll share my "day before Make a difference day," as well as what I did on October 27 and 28.
Be happy, and give back/pay it forward/mentor/love/share Jesus - what can you do to change a life? More importantly, what WILL you do?
