The first thing I think of is...smile. Such pretty, cheerful flowers! Love the vivid bright pink!

Thank you Kate. I would love to try to keep this one, but I never have success keeping them over the winter. Autumn seems to be their season.

What I do is digging my tubers out, house the dirt off, let it out to dry a little bit, wrap in the news paper, store it in the "basement " storage room.... and hope that all will be fine next spring. Most of them are OK but there are some casualties.
This one is beautiful and maybe worth to try to save Bathgate..

I can store them in the basement too. That will be happening soon.

I can see that you still have a lovely weather on the east coast Bathgate. You still have few more days to enjoy them. We are already colder in PNW. 10 deg celsius for high and even worse next week....they say.

We had a spell of summer-like weather, but now it's changing, becoming more seasonal. You can feel it. The sun is fading.
