Our last visit to the cottage, was unbelievable!!!
The 2 days we spent there, broke records for high temps in November...
There will still quite a few things blooming, and I wanted to share them with you..
We had lots of Perennial Mums, in Pink and a lovely red...and ltos of tiny visitors on them as well!!
There were lots of Perennial White Yarrow blooming...it just keeps on going!!!
I was very surprised to see the Pink Campion in bloom...they are usually sound asleep by this time of the year!!
Annual Geraniums and White Nicotianas still putting on a great show...
And the sweet little Campanula Bell Flower...just keeps blooming and blooming...such a hardy perennial...
The leaves also were still a splendid colour...have lots more pics to share...
Even my tiny tomatoes were still trying...♥️
Hope you are all well....
I know my American friends will be having a ball tomorrow....ENJOY!!!!!
We are almost ready to leave and go get our flu shots for the year...
Not looking forward to a sore arm tomorrow....😧
Enjoy your evening...
Cheers! :o)

That's crazy -- WHERE'S WINTER?
ReplyDeleteWelcome back Debra...you missed winter! 😂
DeleteEnjoy that weather. It is cold and rainy here.
ReplyDeleteFlu shots. Not fun. More fun than the flu though.
Your garden is beautiful. I'm a little jealous.
Don't be jealous Barbara...you will be milder than me all winter...out there on the beautiful west coast of our beautiful country...
DeleteLovely blooms last week, wonder if you will see them this week after the temperatures dropped considerable. Not fun getting flue shots, perhaps that is why we don't get them. Lucky me, haven't been sick since I stopped working with kids :)
ReplyDeleteI will see on Saturday Linda!
DeleteLucky you never gets sick....
What beautiful blooms you have! Who would believe your garden would look like that the middle of November? I still have some blooms too. I'm not complaining.
ReplyDeleteThanks Kathy....November was a beauty!
DeleteOur Novembers are not what they used to be..:) Although we have had snow and it's in the high 30's today in MTL..A little pinprick? Courage!
ReplyDeleteI was brave! Tomorrow will tell the tale! 2 more sleeps til Miss V comes!💕
DeleteLake Erie must be in the tropics!
ReplyDeleteHi Furry....
DeleteIt is! And it is still quite warm...might not freeze for a while... You have lots of snow up there!
It is increadable isn't it that there still are bloom this late in the season if it weren't for me putting my gardens to bed I bet I would of had blooms in my gardens to still, oh wait I do my English daises are all still in bloom they love the colder weather . Guess being near lake Erie is warmer then eh? like us only minuets away from it mind you not as close as your cottage lol but still . Raining sleet here now and is very cold out to . Lovely photos . Thanks for sharing , Have a good day !
ReplyDeleteLoving the late blooms....makes me smile....sleet??????? Geesh.....
DeleteGlad your warm season is lengthened and you are still blooming . . . :)
ReplyDeleteVery nice shots, Linda.
I had my first ever anti flu jab and an anti shingles jab on the same day, so I should be flu free for a while and protected that nasty shingles.
Cheers, Eddie :)
Hi Eddie....
DeleteI had a shingles shot earlier this year...had a VERY mild case a few years ago...don't want that EVER!
We've had an amazing fall, haven't we? It is currently snowing and blowing here. I have been meaning to get my flu shot. A close friend of mine is a pharmacist and she has given me my flu shot for the past couple of years. -Jenn
ReplyDeleteWe sure have Jenn...we still are snowless...rain today..
DeleteHow wonderful to continue to have bright flowers in your garden, even if a few bugs join in. It was 38c here today, also a November high record. What in the world is happening to our weather? Your purple flower is gorgeous, and I have no idea with it is :)
ReplyDeleteOh my...you are hot down there!!
DeleteThat is the Campanula Patricia...I have white and mauve...a very sturdy wee perennial...and it spreads like crazy! Unfortunately usually into the lawn!
i gave my son a clump for his gardens...he loves it!
Stay cool!!
Wow! So many blooms for late November Linda. I saw some of my rose campions blooming recently too. I think everything is finished now though. I did have some geraniums in a window box, but the snow on the weekend finished the flowers off. As to your question, my dad is at Erin Mills Pkwy & 403. I guess that's fairly close to you? I'm terrible at driving in your city, and get lost ... a lot! One time trying to get back on the 403 I ended up in the "arrivals" at the airport!! I was not happy, but my family sure had a good laugh ;)
ReplyDeleteWendy
You get lost here? Hmmmm....that is a beautiful place your dad is at...we will meet for coffee next time you are up!
DeleteBeautiful blooms! Nothing here....we have had a week of hard frosts overnight so everything has said goodbye for the year. I did bring in one small white geranium and put it in my new garden window and it has already started blooming! So I guess it approves of it's new spot for the winter! yay!
ReplyDeleteI love to bring geraniums in..I have a couple!
DeleteYour new kitchen window is perfect!
You have lovely bright spots of flower power!
ReplyDeleteA dear friend brought me a beautiful, bright pink cyclamen. Have to say it cheered me. And another friend chose a gorgeous pink and green silky robe for me and now I match the cyclamen! :-)
Cyclamens are lovely....keep it well watered and deadheaded!
DeleteBeautiful . . .
ReplyDeletePerked me up!
Glorious November days here in the states.
Although the rain arrived and can end soon . . . no doubt it is good to have
rain late in the season to water the soil for springtime!
Happy you enjoyed some lovely cottage days . . .
Hi Lynne....
DeleteWe sure did! A nice week ahead as well...
Happy Sunday to you!
That is incredible! I should have left some plants in the gardens here as we've only had 2 real killing frosts. Nice to see these Linda.
ReplyDeleteWe haven't really had a deep frost yet...goo a be above seasonal all week too!
DeleteWow, I'm always so impressed that you know the names of all of the different flowers. Hope you had a fun sleepover with Miss V. I did my usual bi weekly trek to the grandkids yesterday. With food, of course. Have a great weekend and take care...
ReplyDeleteWe had fun with our wee houseguest! Even took her to the cottage yesterday!
