Enter Autumn

Sad that the brief summer that we’ve had seems to have disappeared as quickly as it came. It was wonderful while it lasted, but ten weeks out of fifty two isn’t what I call an even balance., but what can we do? nothing……………………..Except try and find beauty in the changing face of Nature.
Here are a few photos of some of the flowers in my garden that have blossomed since the weather has cooled , I hope you enjoy them as much as I do
This sunflower is a self seed, probably from the bird seed that dropped from the feeder, there are another two not yet in bloom.
I have always grown Fuchsias I just love the variety of colour and petal formation
The Passion Flower looks quite exotic, and the story of Jesus and his disciples is fascinating.
          I love the simplicity of the Osteospernum, It’s so easy to grow and spreads well.

Ever since my Mother told me that honesty only grows in an honest person’s garden, I’ve tried to keep some going in mine. They're also called 'Moon Pennies' apt isn't it' This Ceratostigma [Plumbago] with the bee on, is my latest shrub, bees love itCosmos are also easy, but I won’t grow them in a pot again, as they need constant watering’The Japanese Anemone is also another favourite.

Sorry it’s not the tidiest of posts but It was difficult to upload the photos from Live photo gallery, and I’m tired LOL
