In My Garden....


 Roses~Lavender~Leaves....My morning walk about...Autumn temps have finally arrived this morning...The high today is 73° which is cool for us with these 90's we've been having...My roses are loving these cooler temps...I have little buds bursting out everywhere on them...Pink, red, yellow, orange, and white....Leaves are falling everywhere preparing my garden areas for their autumn beds... My first year for lavender plants...I have lost a few, but the 8 surviving ones gave me some unexpected purple blooms...I wasn't expecting them til next year...I'm already dreaming of the spring and some new beds but looking forward to a rest...

I hope everyone is having a good morning..My eldest is home with a sick stomach..I pray it is not contagious...

From the farmhouse~~hugs, Jen

Very beautiful roses and that is so neat about your lavender. I hope to grow it someday too, we'll see! I hope your eldest feels better soon!

Hi LaNelle! Thank you for visiting! The cooler temps were just a tease...Humidity is coming back and the 80's...Crazy weather we have!

Hi Jessica! I am by no means an expert in lavender but hopefully it will come back next year...I have wanted to try it for a long time..Thank you! Taylor is feeling better and thankfully, so far, no one else has gotten it..

Your flowers are beautiful. We have always had a tough time growing roses. We transplanted a bush from my brother’s yard before they sold the house for our niece. We thought we had lost it but Don brought it back and it seems to be doing well.

hi Marnie! It is tough here also..We have such sandy soil being several hours from the coast...I have one that was gifted to me that I thought wasn't going to make it since it hadn't been in soil for 2 days when I got it...But it is slowly coming back to life...I will spend the winter dreaming of springtime and my flowers...Have a lovely weekend!!
