October 24’s Friday Fleurday

14 Comments

Although the flowers are of course dwindling now I am still discovering a few here and there.

The matador roses are really hardy and in some protected corners I see them blooming even into December.

The crane’s bill flowers are almost all gone now, though.

Asters are quite tolerant and I may also find some of them well into November or December.

Chrysanthemums are the stars of course and will tolerate a light frost; I’ve even seen them survive a freezing rain. The fact is, however, that time is running out for our garden lovelies. It’s time to enjoy the last of them!

Happy Friday.

    1. Thanks, Allan. Yes, I agree. There will be a few to be found as late as December but after that very unlikely. Then again, by that point we have spring to look forward to. Cheers. Hope your travel adjustments went well.

  6. How lovely to still see some flowers in bloom despite the time of year. Agreed, the chrysanthemums really are the stars of the show. And it’s amazing how they come in so many different colours.

    1. Yes, I agree, Linda. It feels really great to still find some, still merrily blooming, and the chrysanthemums are everywhere now. It seems that the city planted a lot of them and in colours ranging from rusty and brownish red all the way to yellow. So great to see. Cheers.
