This year I have vowed to take on LESS so that I can do other things that I love to do. Really love seeing the transition from summer to fall in your garden!

Your wildflowers are doing well, and i am happy to see a seed pod of your milkweed which is in the same family as our hoyas. I realized they have the same characteristics of the seed fiber attachments, although hoyas have smaller and thinner pods.Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05848957958059476177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8333330062798605073.post-48293676018522596542014-09-25T00:17:25.205-05:002014-09-25T00:17:25.205-05:00The pitcher sage is so popular, I wish I had flowe...The pitcher sage is so popular, I wish I had flowers right now that were drawing in the butterflies. I know how you feel about the coming of fall, I had a very hard time last year, but this year the summer was unusually hot and dry, and I was not enjoying that, so I feel better about this fall, though I won't be looking forward to winter either, but last fall my antidote was to start a lot of flowers early under lights, and it did make me feel better, plus I got to enjoy the flowers this summer.

My Asters are struggling to get some sun--we've been especially shady this summer because the Oak foliage in the garden is so thick and lush with all the rain we had early in the summer. That's good for the Oaks, but my garden was in deep shade this summer so the blooms are a little more sparse. We'll see what happens in the next couple of weeks--the leaves are starting to color and drop!Beth at PlantPostingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10473637655960119672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8333330062798605073.post-8922082842042134812014-09-24T17:21:54.828-05:002014-09-24T17:21:54.828-05:00I understand how fall can be hard to accept with a...I understand how fall can be hard to accept with a long winter...we have that too...but your flowers are fabulous and I really like that Pitcher sage.....my asters are starring right now too.

I haven't seen nearly the number of Monarchs that you have, but I have had one or two the past several days. I keep thinking each one may be the last as they are beginning to make their migration south. I pinched off a milkweed pod from alongside the road last week, and I noticed it had the black spot you mentioned. I wonder if it's safe to plant the seeds? Surely, as long as they don't look moldy or spotty inside, they should be okay. I thought it was the easiest way to get some started in my garden.<br /><br />I was admiring your goldenrod so much I had to go back to your previous post, which I missed, to see what type it is. All of mine is volunteer and looks quite a bit different; I think it's either Tall Goldenrod or Canada Goldenrod. I really like the different types you have.<br /><br />I vote for spring to start in mid-March, too!Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01384059342847120951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8333330062798605073.post-87656570462401013342014-09-24T07:19:46.064-05:002014-09-24T07:19:46.064-05:00Sue, as always, your corner garden is putting on a...Sue, as always, your corner garden is putting on a spectacular show for the neighborhood. Yeah, I'm not looking forward to Winter either. I just took my snow blower into the shop for a tune up. I didn't use it last year because of the lack of any heavy snow. I just have this feeling that this Winter is going to be different. Thanks for giving us the fall tour of your gardens.<br /><br />Have a great wildflower day.Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00571521947867768070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8333330062798605073.post-30045061295449115392014-09-24T05:29:59.254-05:002014-09-24T05:29:59.254-05:00Sue that picture of the Monarchs on the white sage...Sue that picture of the Monarchs on the white sage is just spectacular!
