What’s Blooming This Week – Early October

Here it is early October, the leaves are changing
and the mums are blooming. Despite the early frost
last weekend, some annuals are still in bloom.

Let’s take a peek…  


Blooming mums on the front steps



A first year mum puts on a small display of color



Lavender in second bloom



A brave post-frost water hyacinth starts to bloom



A lone coneflower



Toad lilies still blooming and full of buds




Basil waiting to become pesto




Pumpkins and mums on the front porch
