Halloween has passed – we had a very good night with over 100 kids – and now November is here.
Over the last week, I’ve woken up to frost on the ground several times.

Those beautiful nasturtiums are no more. The frost has taken out most of the annuals.

Including the amazing bunch of pink zinnias.


With the exception of the African Daisies which are holding up very well.




Several of the roses are still going. And both Chrylser Imperial and Chicago Peace have put up new buds. I don’t think they will get a chance to bloom fully, but they will try.



Locked between the concrete path, and concrete driveway, the driveway garden holds a little more heat so it’s not a total to surprise to still have things blooming – Left to Right – Armeria, Gaura, and Lavender.

My Chinese Lanterns are glowing bright.

And my Burning Bush isn’t quite on fire – but it’s getting there.

And we are still picking raspberries. Though they are fewer and smaller each day.
What a fright! We’ve had frost warnings but it hasn’t happened yet. I’ve got roses still trying to bloom. Brave little things.

Knocking wood, no frost here yet, but if you’ve had it, then it’ll be here in no time.

Still going strong up there.
My hydrangea (one of them) is blooming. The crazy azalea has buds.
No frost yet, but I suspect it won’t be far off.

Even after a frost, the garden retains its own beauty!

Even after the frost, you still have quite a bit of beauty in your gardens.

No frost here yet, but it’s been cool enough to make the burning bushes red. The pinecones are dropping along with the leaves, and today it’s 54 and windy. It’s been very rainy here, so we didn’t even have one trick-or- treater!

We’ve had a lot of frost warnings but didn’t quite make it. You still have a lot of color left in your garden. Yay! Mandy bought candy and fruity things for 700 and didn’t have lot left over. Kids get bused into their neighborhood because of the candy and decorations.
Blessings,
