Selective photography can do that. Unless you look at the trees, which are finally starting to color up, the rest of the garden is muted greens and browns, with the <em>occasional</em> flash of bloom duly documented. The one frost we've had put the morning glories, tomatoes, basil et al out of commission, and blackened the tops of the hydrangeas. My one and only mum is the only plant going gangbusters. Thanks for stopping by, Fran. I am sorry if I gave people the wrong impression. Selective photography can do that.

I'm surprised to see that your USDA Zone 5 is still giving such a floral show. Parts of USDA Zone 6, including me, have already had a light frosts and have lost sweet potato and hyacinth bean vines. Enjoy the beauty while it lasts! Fran Kathy-

I still have a lot blooming too, but once again didn't manage a proper Bloom Day post. Oh well...I'm glad the rest of you are so organized. --Robin (Bumblebee) Lots of pink in your garden, if you judge from the photos!

And with this warmer than usual fall, I'm reading about a lot of gardeners who are pleasantly surprised to still have so much blooming (or hanging on) in October. We'll see what November brings!
