November Garden

The November garden hangs close to the house.  We've had frosts and even snow, but some hardy and protected plants keep going as evidenced below:


I've lost one complete planter on the deck but
the other keeps going.  The mums stuck 
in the middle are drooping after their full bloom.


Protected on the front porch, a couple pots 
keep blooming. They are keeping company 
with some chrysanthemums I'm plant-sitting.
(More on that story in the next blog posting.)


The matching mum sets off the red of 
a lonely pot of geranium blooms.


The holly near-by is going 
to be great this year!
But it seems to be on the wrong end of the stem...
Improper pruning, I suppose!


The herbs are looking pale
but I should have some for Turkey Day.


But I will have rosemary!
This clipping grew roots in water on the windowsill.
I just potted it in some soil.
A bit of green with
a screen still in place,
an empty deck
and oak trees still providing
some color.
