So much colour is still in most gardens at the moment,which is so nice to see. These were taken in between heavy showers this morning.. I think the seasons ,especially Autumn,are lasting much longer these days,so no complaints from me :o)


This last photo,is of some beautiful Roses,one of my Birthday gifts recently..


I hope your gardens are still being enjoyed too..x

Sandra, how lovely to see so much colour in your garden, you must be so pleased. Those birthday Roses are pretty, and a belated Happy Birthday wish from me too!

I just looked back on my blog from this time last year, all about the same in my garden, other than the Zebra grass being removed. Guess what? Today while I was putting some home made compost on the borders I spotted a little Echinops plant you sent me seed of years ago! It has decided to sprout again ... :o)

Lovely to see so much colour still in your garden!

I had hopes that the flowers on our balcony would last into October but that storm we had a few weeks ago put paid to any hope of that! I've still got Geraniums & Morning Glory flowering on the balcony & now I have some Cyclamen to take their place.

Thank you all,for your nice comments.
I love this time of year in the garden ,Hywel, especially,the Dahlia's,which come into their own .These were grown from saved seed,dater 2021,which I had forgotten about.:o) x..

Rose,I will look forward to your blog,now you have got sorted,:o) x

Shirley, thank you for your Birthday wishes, we had a nice Sunday lunch out ,to celebrate..
I'm surprised you haven't got lots of little Echinops appearing in yuor garden ! I try to remember to dead head into a paper bag ,before they spread everywhere! I do like them ,but in moderation :o)

Balcony,you always have a lovely display,but a shame the storm spoiled some of them.Enjoy the ones you still have. I love Cyclamen,but somehow,I never get around to buy some !
Paul, it doesn't take much looking after to be honest,and I've cut back on pots this year,so these are enough for me now.. I still have a front garden,and a long border to keep me occupied.:o).
