Leaving the September garden. . . . . . . . . . .


Just a few quick clipping and tidying chores, along with minimal pruning of the
 unruly jasmines on the front porch, and that's it for gardening around
 here. . . . . . well at least until the very end of the month. The grass was cut on
 Monday and, as the weather continues hot and dry, should not require any care
 until we return.

Twirling Clematis seed pods.

Bumble bees still feasting on the Pentas, white and pink.

Always sad to leave the garden no matter the season.
It should have much more of an Autumnal feel when we return.

  7. I've started cutting back and tidying the borders ready for winter now but sedums,asters and crocosmias are still providing splashes of colour. Autumn is definitely here though the weather is still warm and mostly dry. Bob voyage.
