These are a few of the colourful shots I captured last weekend at the cottage....
It was pretty darn difficult to pare them down...
Man...
I take a lot of pictures!!!
The Tall Miscanthus alongside the beach deck...
Was just developing some plumes...
These are about 8' tall...
Can't wait to cut some to bring home...
For my winter landscape...
Below are a few of my baskets...still going strong...
A few Geraniums to pot up and bring home for the winter...
I must say...
I was pleasantly surprised to see these Cleome still budding and blooming...
Perhaps I can gather a few seeds for next year...
Aren't they beautiful???

ReplyDeleteI always like finding LSK in your pictures. It is like "Where's Waldo".
I agree...I think I'll pack her up this weekend...
DeleteI was thinking of running a contest to see who can guess my middle name!!!
It is a real stumper!!
I'm going to start eating at your house because...YUM. I love the beach path and I can totally picture you saying that. :)
ReplyDeleteCome on up!!!
DeleteThe door is always open!!
I love my pathway!!!
I love cleome. Do you buy the plants or plant from seed Linda? They are so pretty and grow so tall. Great pictures of your late bloomers! We're going to have sunshine all weekend too! Love it. Our dinner is on Saturday. How about yours?
ReplyDeleteI have done both,Pam...these were purchased...and never looked better!
DeleteDinner on Sunday...that way the kids can have Monday to themselves...and vice-versa!
Lovely still seeing blooms at the cottage. Glorious day today, did some yard clean up, dug some tender perennials, still contemplating bringing the fuchsia inside, dug several pots of creeping jenny into the ground to overwinter, took apart my tipsy pots :( and bought some new tulips and daffodils to plant.
ReplyDeleteCome on.......bring her in!!! Chronicle her all winter..like you do in the garden!
DeleteLove tulips and daffodils!!! My problem is...when I am planting in the summer...I always dig right into them!!! I usually leave a marker...but...can't always see them!!!
have a great weekend!
Love the water drops on the tomatoes!
ReplyDeleteSeems like September decided to stick around for extra couple of weeks after all.

Yes it did!!
DeleteAnd...I am sure...we are all very happy about that !!
