Death of the Garden

The last of the Pincushion Flowers, blooming late October

Cushion Spurge: Not sure what I love more about this gal ~ pretty spring blossoms or colorful fall foliage.

A for Effort: Primrose is budding!

Cerise Yarrow gets a late start, blooms well into November (unless, of course, the weather ruins her plans.)

  1. Oooooh, so sad! I think you should call it the 'long sleep' or 'final efforts'...

  4. I guess a title like death is a bit dark, isn't it? I'm sad to see this planting season is over... :(

  5. I agree that death is a bit too final a condition to apply to a garden, which almost always rises again, spring after spring.

  6. Agreed, Granny and Jan - I suppose that's too harsh. I must have been in a Halloweenie mood when I titled it. :)
