Uhhh, neat. I love pics that kind of set their own mood. Makes me want to grab a cup of coffee and go out and drink in the fresh, moist morning.

Marlorena, I'm so glad you see a difference. I'm here every day so it's difficult to judge. Titian, I wonder what causes the differences in SdlM. Other people have mentioned the pale flowers. You'd think with my rotten soil, heat and drought this rose would be a mess, but it's been one of my most reliable roses. Trust me, if you could see my list of discarded roses, you'd feel better. I'm afraid and ashamed to count them, the number is so huge. After more than eight years, more than half are young roses, which really discourages me sometimes since they take so long to get going. I've concentrated more on tea roses now, although I have a feeling many will outgrow their allotted spaces. I'm not too fond of Chinas except Mutabilis and many of the Austins didn't do well here. I always feel that no matter what I do I've made mistakes again, but I just keep muddling along.

Fog adds so much depth and mystery to scenes doesn't it?! Beautiful.... (unless you have to drive in it!) Are you near a large body of water? We're near Lake Ontario but, oddly, rarely get fog here.

Thank you so much North.

Yes woody, there are many lakes nearby. The sun was shining to start and then the fog rolled in...

You have really attractive fall gardens with both foliage and flowers looking full and healthy! I think you've mastered the art of season long interest, based on these and other photos you have posted.

Lily thank you, you will get there. It took me 7 years and that's only because I kept going and going and going, making more beds. I finally told myself that's enough! Just put border around all the beds (boy was that a job) this year to prevent myself from extending the beds anymore lol.

Peren thank you for your kind words :)

Schoolhouse thank you, I'm guessing you like purple too as it does seem to dominate my beds.
