I’m always surprised at this time of year when I walk out my back door and see some flowers! I don’t really have plantings designed for fall bloom, so it definitely puts a smile on my face when I see something still alive in my yard in October! (No, you won’t yet see any pumpkins!)
For Friday field trip today, I am sharing my favorite stragglers – the plants that are still hanging on – on each side of the house. At the back door view my favorite is definitely my tremendous fern – still going strong! But, so is my parsley – look how healthy and beautiful it is mixed with some mums from BJs!
In the back yard, the succulent mix I added to a vintage iron bicycle is still (almost) there – a few plants have died, but the mix still looks good (with no care whatsoever!)
On my side yard, all the herbs are still growing! I am most excited about the oregano because I have had occasions to use it the most in recent days!
And, in the front – is the only ‘color’ I have –
Why are these flowers not white? I planted them the year I changed my door color to red maple!
Thanks for stopping by!
Have a wonderful weekend and remember to take pleasure in simple things, Jackie
