I had a wonderful time this past week with two special visitors and their husbands; as soon as I can find the time I'll post about it.

I missed that petunia. It looks great. Your double impatients look a lot better than the one I had this year. I guess all we can do is pray for rain. I think you should show the apples that you use to make that yummy apple bread. They are so pretty. My sedum flops too.

But I agree, some of my sedum looks as though they're dying.

Yes...Wow, so much color for this time of year lady! Yes, it was a hot one and still hot here in GA. I envy your potato vine. The grasshoppers got to mine to the point it was so ratty, that I took most of it out recently. I could not spray them as bloomers were in the area and I feared harming the bees, butterflies and hummers. Whats a gardener to do? Sigh… Your Roses are sure knock outs with their beauty as well. Darn beetles can go elsewhere. We have control over the J. Beetles but not the grasshoppers. I have never seen so many as this year. Yikes, I must get to them before next year… Looking Good Rose….<br /><br />Enjoy your visit :-)Skeeterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08222522533934405029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9125698507772106631.post-5032141945969654612010-09-15T22:29:14.173-05:002010-09-15T22:29:14.173-05:00Your colorful garden is September lovely, Rose.
