CLOSING UP SHOP

Short of getting my order from Van Fleur with literally still dozens of things to plant and freezing temperatures creeping in, I am done and ready to finish closing up shop.  
Thank goodness the weather has been hospitable.

I grew lots of plants in the Sun Garden this summer I had never grown before so I had to learn about their pruning procedures and it turns out they almost all get severely cut back:







Echinacea is either/or.


I will leave them until last and see how I am feeling...

Let us hear it for tomorrow, one of the season's final days to be spent outside.
Hip hip hooray!

      Thanks, it is nice to be able to use photos of my own flowers finally, whereas this time last year I had to use placeholders to outline my plans.

      Thanks Sabine. This is the first time I've had a sunny colourful garden and I am well pleased with the results.
