This hydrangea has one fall holdout. |
 |
One bloom that has not faded... |
 |
The cosmos are still in bloom. |
 |
A couple of fuchsias are still holding out. |
 |
The blue sage is as blue as ever. |
 |
And the little volunteer violas are doing their thing. I don't like watching the flowers fade in the fall. I concentrate on the ones that are still trying to be beautiful. Before long they too will fade, and winter will bring the rain to prepare for next year. |

Beautiful! My last hydrangea bloom has faded to violet just this past week. Fall is in the air for sure! And I seriously wouldn't mind a day of good soaking rain. We are watering and watering but the soil is dry so far down now that it barely seems to make a difference.
Don't you just love a floral Indian Summer, so far it's been nicer then our actual summer. I like your outlook. :)
My flower pots are fading as well, especially with the last few mornings of frost (!) here. Your cosmos look amazing!
I think this is the time when I appreciate my flowers the most. My neighbor has cut down and dumped out almost all of her flowers, because she doesn't want to do it when it's cold. I can't bear to do that!
LOVE all of the pink and blue you've still got blooming!
Lovely! Cosmos are some of my favorites--they self-sow every year and I'm always happy to see them.
