Flaunting My Flowers Sept 24, 2009


It's Friday again, and time to join Tootsie for  Flower Flaunting. I can't help wondering how many more Fridays before all will be frozen. Our weather has been lovely, with record highs for September.  Most years, we have very few flowers in bloom at this time.



Here is some of what is still in bloom:
Autumn Joy Sedum



Flower bed -front of house:
Sun-loving Coleus, Lime potato vine,



Some coleus for bouquets:


I must admit, I haven't been fertilizing much these days!

Oh I hope the frost stays away a while longer!

Everything looks so bright and cheerie. Very important this time of year when the blahs are just waiting to happen - or maybe happening a little already! ;-)

The blooms have lasted a bit longer this year, but with the chilly nights moving in they won't be around much longer. Stop by and see my anemones that won't stop blooming.

First of all, I LOVE your new header! It is so beautiful and am I right that the photos are of your own gorgeous flowers. Your garden is still so lovely, I hope I get to see it in real life before it all freezes. I am determined to plant some fall flowers next Spring. Hugs, Cindy S.

Decorating for Thanksgiving 2020

 Our Canadian Thanksgiving is in one week. Due to COVID, we won't be having a Thanksgiving family dinner this year, but I did some decorating anyway.

Due to our Provincial rules, they are only allowed 10 guests The wedding will be held in his parents' back yard so another 10 of us will be seated in the yard next door to see the ceremony.+ It has been almost 2 years since I  last posted. Sometimes life events get in the way!
