Today is Guy Fawkes Day here in England although most firework displays and bonfire parties took place over the past weekend. However my dahlias have had their own display not withstanding the frosts we have had recently. The dwarf Chrysanthemums too are now beginning to take pride of place in the border and the first of the winter heathers are showing colour.

The trees are such beautiful colours too and the berries this year are so bright they look as though they have been varnished.......the blackbirds are have a choice this year!

Kind regards to everyone who visits my thread......Margaret

I am posting a couple of my clematis which have been flowering for the past couple of weeks - hope you like them!

Kind regards Margaret

Beautiful flowers and good photos .

The leaves are falling thick and fast so mostly it is a clearing up operation in most English gardens at the moment. However I couldn't resist the charm of the late flowering Cosmos - lavender pink (most of you know by now that lavender is one of my favorite colours in the garden) and the contrast of the flowers, bud, and fruits on the Fuchsia......which led to admiring the dwarf yellow Chrysanthemum, the 'flowers' appearing on the Fattish and the 'find' of the month......a beautiful rose bud with a long stem which I cannot remember planting and has just appeared outside my bedroom window......and very welcome it is too.

Autumn has been kind to us this year and the colours amazing.......now for the winter show which has been promised by the weather forecasters!

regards to everyone.......Margaret

Margaret, more lovely flowers!

More beautiful Flowers Margaret,
we're preparing for some hot days next week, I'll have to put some shade cloth up

This must be a record for me - 2 posts in 2 days! However I would like to share this little tale with you........My husband came in a few minutes ago - very pleased with himself! He told me he had discovered a couple of pretty little yellow pansies and a dwarf Foxglove and he had taken photo's of them for me.

My husband is a lovely man but he is not very good at recognizing flowers......the 'pansies' are nasturtiums and the dwarf Foxglove is a little cosmo which has pushed up through the foxglove leaves! However he took a superb photo of our new rose so all is forgiven!!!!

Hope this brightens your day .......regards Margaret

p.s. Yvonne I envy your warm weather - we are expecting wintry showers and freezing fog!

Your Husband did well with the photos Margaret,
lovely flowers ......

It will be 35C in a few days & we are only allowed to water twice a week, so my plants will be a bit droopy, stay warm there,

Yvonne
