October Blooms

Amazingly, we still have not had a frost here in Snowville, so there are still lots of flowers. The weather is turning cooler and we've started on some fall chores. The screen room has been emptied of everything except the heavy iron glider. Hopefully the boys will be able to help John move it to the shed. We've been having lake effect rain and things have been busy at work so I haven't done much in the garden.

Most of what's blooming is either still blooming or reblooming. I only have three new blooms for this month. I was told that the first one was toadflax but after reading Carol's post I realize it could be a toad lily.

Toad lily? obtained in Sept at
Garden Club plant exchange


"Dollar store" mum bought spring 2006.
Started blooming a full month after my other mums.


Scarlet sage about to bloom. I planted this in 2006 but not
this year. I thought this was monarda coming up in this pot and
left it. This must be from seeds that fell in this pot last year.
