I also like ALL your flowers still in bloom Diane - you are so lucky to have so much color still there this late in the year! Of course most of that is due to the tender loving care that you give to all your plants! I thought I'd share a few that are still surprising me with blooms this late in the year! Firstly... I planted these ajuga rather late in the season - late Sept. after buying them at 50% off. I thought these were springtime bloomers, but there are a few flower heads blooming NOW! The purple color of the leaves has intensified in the fall, making the electric blue of the tiny flowers really pop - gotta love it! Just look at these colors!!! more next post...

And there are many more buds on them. The interesting thing is that there aren't any seeds on any of the older flower heads yet? See all the buds still?

If it is nice enough I will go out tomorrow and take a picture or 2 of it. ..again....great photos ________ Life isn't about how to survive the storm, but how to dance in the rain!! .....
