Flowers are kind of on their last life, beginning to die back. The Zinnias are turning and seed will be dropped in the pots hopefully to come up next year. I brought in a small sunflower head to seed and plant next year in a new spot and the milkweek pods are being collected to be buried later this Fall and hopefully produce even more milkweed plants next year. I have yet to have caterpillars again this year but I am still hopeful.
I love marigolds, i have some vibrant oranges as well and the seed is being dropped in the post hopefully to have new plants next year.
One of the neighbors trees is starting to turn. It is too early does that mean early Fall and then early Winter? I hope not.
I always seem to have 2 sunflower plants here that come up volunteerly probably from the gold finches dropping seeds.
The Naked Ladies were gorgeous this year.
This will be the 3rd summer for these Vinca, bringing them in again this Winter to see if they survive only to be set out again next year.
The portulaca (aka moss rose) is all abloom this morning, seeds brought from Powell Garden.
This lavender is for a friend building a new house, part of her House Welcoming gift.
This beautiful moth had a nap on the porch behind the Naked Ladies. He was here for several hours.

The hummingbirds have been large in number this year, this one is quite chubby.
