Autumn 2009 Colors

No foliage trips this year, just some color from around the house. Still working on having something in bloom every month.

Leaves from saplings that sprouted in the yard, I stuck them in a flower box, but next year I may grow them in small pots.

I really like them now, both for the foliage and the flowers which look like little butterflies floating above the plant.DSC02049  Heuchera, this one has white flowers in late spring. DSC02068I have to divide the coral bells next spring as they are taking over, so put in your orders now. One white, one hot pink with green foliage and one soft pink with green foliage.

The dicentra blooms were still looking good until Saturday’s frost.
