Here in North America we might be heading into winter, but in Andy’s part of the world, the reverse is true. I hope you take a few minutes to visit his interesting site at Ebb Then Flood by clicking the link above.

Although we’re heading into September, there are still many, many late bloomers providing beauty, colour and scent. Here are some highlights from this week’s flower lovelies.
Panicled hydrangeas. I love the little floof that develops at the end of each cluster. The asters are beautiful right now. Japanese anemones are so seemingly delicate but are actually quite hardy (for this zone). White and red pond lilies. Floating flowers – how wonderful is that? And last but not least, the Penticton Rose Garden has been busily producing wonderful blooms since spring. Here’s a pretty pink one.
