Fall Color
Submitted by My Garden Spot Blog
Just in time for Thanksgiving, the Houston area is finally showing some fall color.
Of course, this being Houston, not all of the color is leaves…
Violas and Pansies in a black kettle. The black ones are called “Black Prince”. When I bought them, none of the flowers were open. They are, indeed, black. Beautiful.
The Cherry Parfait rose is in bloom again, and Belinda’s dream is getting ready to put out another large blush of blooms.
Most of Belinda’s blooms are still buds, only one open….but soon, oh, soon!
About 2 weeks ago, I bought an orange tree. I’m planning on planting it in February or so. Seems it wants to bloom now. I’m not sure…is that a nascent orange??
This lovely pink hibiscus isn’t in my yard, it’s in my sis in law’s. It is pretty, isn’t it?
Volunteer allysium thinks it’s spring already. Oh well, if we don’t get a freeze (or at least not a bad one) it might bloom all winter and I’ll have even more volunteers from its seed. I just love free plants.
And now, on to Christmas.
