Helianthus 'maximiliani' cloaking the birdhouse
one of the last summer bloomers
Made even better by a pop of 'Brazillian Purple' Salvia
Dahlia 'Apple Blossom' glorious at a towering height of 6'
Don't even want to think about letting it go....
or Hollyhock 'Peaches 'N Dreams'
Holding on to these perfect fall days for dear life
Kirengeshoma palmata (aka yellow waxbells)
Toad lily
Zinnia 'Queen Red Lime' & Verbena bonariensis
The stuff of dreams....
September. Linger long.
Your garden looks so much healthier than mine. I'm about to give up on the watering and just wait to see what survives. I love the shots of the Sunflowers, Hollyhocks, and Dahlias!

September is going way too fast for me. I love the purple salvia with the yellow Helianthus. The Hollyhocks are gorgeous!

Your Hollyhock looks like tissue paper, so pretty. I like your photo of the toadlily...think it is great. Love those polka dots. They are tough to get all in focus. You should see all the failed photos.

Yes, it's sad when fall slips away. But October is SO worth it!
