November in the Garden

There's only one more day left in November and we still haven't had a killing frost. Lots of flowers are still gaily blooming, seemingly unaware of their imminent demise.

The temperature has been about 10 degrees above normal for this time of the year, so the late blooms are no surprise.

    Cynthia,
    It's hard to believe there is that much difference between your house in Crewe and mine here in Cumberland. We have experienced a killing freeze, with temperatures down to 27 or 28 a number of nights. Wish my mandevilla wasn't already gone. Yours is beautiful!
