Love the sedum Sheri and the dog planter is so cute!

Beautiful flowers. I love that planter, too. I almost had to buy one when I saw it...

did I title this "fall flowers"? I don't even remember. I'm officially nuts.

Dianna · « **Reply #4 on:** Sep 24, 2009, 11:19:17 AM »

No, Sheri. I titled it that way and moved it out of the summer bloomers topic because Fall has officially arrived. I locked up the summer flower topic...

Thanks for telling me. I thought I was really loosing it.

this is how I really know it's fall. The camelias start blooming.

I've got strawberries in the window boxes

That first flower is so pretty Sheri.

bestofour · « **Reply #8 on:** Oct 14, 2009, 07:38:16 PM »

The camelia? That's how I know it's fall.

Dianna · « **Reply #9 on:** Oct 14, 2009, 08:05:56 PM »

Sure can't tell with the weather the way it is, can you, Sheri?

Aunt Bonnie's camellia's are blooming, too...

My mums are bursting with color out there in the front bed. I haven't taken a picture yet because I need to weed it...

bestofour · « **Reply #10 on:** Oct 14, 2009, 08:23:35 PM »

I always need to weed. Maybe next spring I'll just plant weeds.

Love the camelia. I always need to weed too. I get lazy at the end of the season and don't do much weeding. It just gets so old.

My mums sure are bright and colorful in the front flower bed. I don't know what happened to the other two colors, but these sure are popping...

I started out with just four inch potted mums...

Wow. In FULL Bloom. Beautiful. When did you start them? How long did it take for them to get that large?

barleychown · « **Reply #14 on:** Oct 17, 2009, 07:48:57 PM »

Beautiful Dianna! You know, those bushes are big enough that you could take cuttings next year and start new bushes for another bed.

Dianna · « **Reply #15 on:** Oct 17, 2009, 08:01:08 PM »

Barb, these were four inch potted plants when I got them. They have grown that much.

A couple didn't, though, so I posted about them in my mum topic.

They are a year old now. They grew that much throughout the summer...

Sarah, if I had to keep them in the house through the winter, I don't know if the cuttings would survive me...

Mums are always a breath of spring in the fall. Very pretty.

At the Food Lion in Roanoke, where my sister lives, they are 99 cents for a big pot. They're $8.00 here for the same size.

i went outside yesterdaay to this

and was most pleasantly surprised at this

i always love that last rose of summer.

Dianna · « **Reply #18 on:** Oct 18, 2009, 02:56:56 PM »

Very pretty, Jenn!

Are those morning glories on the fence? That rose is a beautiful color...

bestofour · « **Reply #19 on:** Oct 18, 2009, 04:24:27 PM »

Pretty rose Jennifer. I can appreciate the pretty colors of morning glories but don't like them. I mistakenly put out a few seeds one time and can't get rid of the darn things. Around here they will choke out other plants if left to run wild.

I know you guys are probably sick of me and my pansys but I finally got them planted.

In the doggy planter

and the sheep planter

and the lantern planter

and the window boxes

Dianna · « **Reply #21 on:** Oct 18, 2009, 04:44:42 PM »

Beautiful, Sheri...

I love those window planters. May I ask where you got them?

bayou girl · « **Reply #22 on:** Oct 18, 2009, 06:59:25 PM »

yes dianna, morning glories. and i love them. they don't always come back, but there they have done well. and there is nothing but weeds to be choked out!

sheri, i love looking at your plants and planters. i just wish i had windows that would hold window boxes. one day...

Penny · « **Reply #23 on:** Oct 19, 2009, 06:57:58 AM »

Very nice everyone,

Jessica · « **Reply #24 on:** Oct 19, 2009, 11:07:11 AM »

Pretty flowers, Jenn!

Sheri...love where you planted all your pansies. Glad you were finally able to get them planted!
