That's one thing I like about the butterfly bushes. It always seems to me that the fall flowers are the most beautiful. A great send-off for summer memories.
Still looking pretty and colorful on the mountain.
I love the fall foliage of our region, what a beautiful gift from God. I love the audacity of lantana and roses that bloom till the first hard freeze puts them to rest.
Nancy,
You are so fortunate to live above the frost line and have so many beautiful flowers blooming after we in the valley have been striken by frost. Have a great week.
Yes, the butterfly bushes keep right on blooming, seeming ignoring the changing of the season. My kind of plant. Can you believe it's pansy time again?
Sam
Sam, I hardly ever buy pansies, but I have done so, and you are right. It is that time. I love blue and yellow together. I do have one place they like to grow where I can see them each day and enjoy them. Thanks for reminding me.
Ditto; I love the blue and yellow too, or any lavender and yellow.
I love the cool air of fall. Can you send some to Florida?
great title for a blog, poems keep us warm.
