As The Leaves Fall

The flowers are few and far between at this time of year but the spots of colour are well appreciated.


This hardy geranium has been blooming since June. The main flush of flowers was earlier in the season but it has continued to make new leaves and a few flowers into autumn.  I really like the vibrant magenta with the dark centre.

A few zinnias.
The Japanese anemone are fun plants with their lime green centres. They are pretty tough and can be invasive in mild climates but in zone 4 they just add a nice bit of brightness when September rolls around.

  1. Oh, I love the peek into your fall flower patch. I have Japanese anemone, too--they're the star of the show at this time of year. I didn't plant zinnias this season and regret it now. Beautiful photos!
