Cruise

I took these photos just this past Sunday.

The garden is wearing out and tonight

we are expecting a hard freeze.

The Alpine miniature strawberries have 

started blooming again.

The zinnias bloomed their hearts out.

Some were reseeded from last year,

and others where from three seed packets

 I planted this spring.

What's left now are faded and worn.

I really loved the color of this salvia.

Even though the fruit production of this

nectarine is minimal, 

I still appreciate this tree.

It has the most beautiful pink flowers in

the spring time and beautiful yellow leaves

in the fall.  

The packet of lavender seeds promised

to bloom the first season, and one made it.

Yeah!

Well, tomatoes here just don't do well.

There's too much shade in our garden space.

This is my first tomato.... still on the vine.

It's not mature enough to save through 

the freeze tonight.

The other two....

The yellow and orange cosmos 

reseed themselves every year.

They're just about finished as well.

I've been collecting the seeds and scattering

them here and there.

Garlic chive seeds ready to start

new plants next spring.

Take care, and have a wonderful

Thanksgiving.
