Great pix everyone Pixi is that boquet from the wedding?
Garden Photos #43
Yes, that was Tiffany's Bridal bouquet.
Just absolutly so wonderful.It must have been a wonderful event
It was, this is the Bride & Groom, Tiffany & Michael.
This is next to the oldest Grandaughter Hayden, she is 5 and would you look at those blue eyes!!
nice victor - now i'll have to see if my clethra, itea, and blue muffins are photo worthy - none of them jumped out at me yesterday - although an itea that i banished to the backyard by the pond has been looking good - did that before it knew what the heck it was :)
celeste you still have a lot of blooms left there and that's a nice bouquet!
hayden's eye match the dress flowers - cute girl
Yes, she picked that dress out for that reason! LOL However, any dress will do with that little girl. She loves dress's.....looks a bit funny while riding her PINK 4 WHEELER!! She's the best of both worlds...girly-girl as far as clothes go but loves 4 wheeling.
cut from grammas cloth I'll bet
Such great photos, don't know where to start! Jen, I just got the wintergreen as a present, so it's not planted yet. Loved your Black Current, Allison's coleus, Bill's amaranth, Victor's coralberry, & Pixie's DL, wedding bouquets, & Hayden. Here is my Hayden, aged 4.
Too funny! We both have Haydens one year apart.
Great shots, Celeste. Nice to see DL's still going. Beautiful bouquet and Hayden(s)!
Great pics, nice that you still have something going on Celeste.
Victor and Bill, hubby would love your yards, he's more into shrubs and foliage than flowers. Maybe that's the excuse I'll use to buy some more.
LOVE that bouquet..... it is beautiful.
I used to have a dress just like Hayden's when I was little.
Jen - pick the right shrubs and you'll have both!
Great to see the fall colour and the season-challenged LA lily. My fav of this bunch is Hayden in her pretty dress ^_^ It will be interesting to see if my stellas will keep blooming now that Jack is Back. They are under the protection of a dahlia this year so maybe/maybe not.
little honey hydrangea just glows - noticed that the two that get a bit more sun have better yellow color than the one in deeper shade
noid hydrangea - this keeps getting a deeper pink - has way out preformed pinky winky who did not rate a picutre this year
Nice. You have alkaline soil.
really? :) no kidding i live in NE
An aster just opening.....
Garden by front door still showing color.....
Great shots, everyone!
Celeste and Marilyn, both Haydens are adorable!
Here are a few shots from the other day.

Late blooming DL called 'Goodbye Columbus'. A very tall one, too.
A trio of pots by the front door with mostly coleus. Won't be long before these go by.
This is some sort of tradescantia, I think. Don't really know for sure. Has spotted leaves and tiny flowers. Very nice and well behaved, unlike another variety I have that has spread out of control.
A closer shot of it.
Another pot of coleus.
Echinacea 'Razzmatazz' still blooming.
Coleus at my wagon wheel.
One more pot of coleus.
And last for now, some coleus planted directly in the garden.
Cousin Nut do you get a skin reaction from the tradescantia? I'm trying to figure out how common that is before I get it. Thanks.
No, I don't. Never heard of that.
Karen
Supposedly some people do. There's a note in PF and I saw it on some other sites. Maybe it's an allergic reaction? So far everyone I ask says 'no' so methinks it will be in my garden next summer ^_^
Very nice, Karen. Great coleus! I have to take cuttings soon.
I have subscribed to Carbonite for online backing up. Nice deal - especially for three years, which is what I got. The initial upload is taking forever. I am in day 4 of it and it is 2/3 done. It's backing up over 70GB! Mostly photos, of course. After that, it should be fast and invisible - working constantly in the background as new files are added.

I need to do that. Computerguy is disgusted with me cuz I don't have anything backed up and says "Bringing me flowers won't help me get it back". I have officially made this an A priority on my winter project list. ps computerguy usually can do anything if I bring him flowers so this is serious stuff. Good for you Victor.
Thanks, Victor!
That backing up is definitely a good idea. I need to do that myself. Absolutely a number one priority this winter.
Karen
There are 20% off coupons online for Carbonite. That's what I used. So three years for $103 - not bad!
that's worth it Victor
That's a pretty tradescantia, Karen---looks like a keeper. I don't keep anything on my computer---should I?
Hi lovely "long view of your garden"...What is the tall light purple plant blooming...Very nice...
