Busy Friday

 


 

I put a few things out on the front stoop. The little wagon is the one Eldest Daughter transformed from a Christmas  red to a more Autumnish look for my birthday in August.

Eldest and Youngest were here for hours today putting down landscape fabric and covering it with bark mulch.  The former "wild area" in the back is starting to look much less wild. I will have to take some pictures soon. The weather today was absolutely perfect. 18C with a few summery clouds. 

Flowers for the table.....

.....and this lovely and unusual Mum


Outside the potted flowers still bloom. The Gazanias came in a pack of six  that had not started showing any colour when we got them.  It was a surprise when 2 plants were yellow and the others white and red petals.

Have a lovely weekend

Thanks for visiting,  GM

  1. Such lovely flowers and how nice of your kids to come and do so much yard work for you. I know it's surely appreciated. The wagon does look very fall like. Mandy, Piper and I went to a local produce stand and I bought a few pumpkins for decorating. I'm not great at it though.
    Blessings and love,

  3. I like your little autumn display. Mesh and mulch should help keep those weeds under control - your "wild" area will be tamed before you know it! Enjoy your lovely weather and pretty flowers this weekend :) xx

  4. Lovely to have so many flowers at this time. I have lots of Michaelmas daisies and a few Cosmos left, but not much more.

  6. Your Ganzias are very interesting, and pretty.
    While our days are not actually warm, they are mild enough as we tiptoe gently into the changing seasons.

  7. Autumn flowers are so pretty, and your gazanias are gorgeous even if the color is different than you'd planned. Love the quote from Anne of Green Gables.

  10. Might I be able to rent your Eldest & Youngest? I have a backlog of yardwork that they seem to be very qualified to undertake, lol!
