Well...our first frost is expected here tonight, so I took some time to admire my beautiful orange and yellow marigold varieties before they fade away.
We planted all these from seed and I have been delighted at all the fall color they have provided over the last couple months.
They will become a regular part of my flower garden since their blooms last well into autumn .

I also still have these gorgeous tall and sturdy hollyhocks...Ahhh...enjoying the last bit of flowering delight before the nights turn too chilly for them.

Hi Cori,
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the info on the paper whites! I am so anxious to try it this year. Living in the NW..you probably know how gray it gets in the winter & I've always thought they would do the trick to cheer me up (just when I'm about to pack my bags & move to Arizona or some other sunny place!) Love the marigolds! They are the best flower...just keep going & going...Your garden looks gorgeous!!
Have a great weekend!
