More Things from the Garden

It's a time of year for cleaning out the garden, and there are only a few blooms left to be found.  We leave some plants standing for the birds over winter, but there's still lots to clean up.  Here are a few shots I noticed while our garden helper was digging!

There are still blooms on the Nasturtium; they seem to survive well into fall.

I was struck by the pattern of a reddish grass we have in the garden.

And then there are more Nasturtium, these ones bright orange.

The yellow rose sports at least one beautiful bloom.

This giant Jack-in-the-Beanstalk plant shot up at least 8 feet high, but it never did bloom.  It's a Mexican Sunflower, like the orange ones we had out front, which were only 3-4 feet high.

Petunias seem to be quite reliable right into fall.

Sorry about the delay in posting this week.  It's been busy every single day this week, so we finally postponed the drive we thought of doing today.  And by the way, Blogger won't co-operate with spacing quite often, as you can see!
