Post Bloom Day
November 16, 2009
Someone nudged me that I missed Garden Bloggers Bloom Day, but it was for a good cause: gardening in a tank top in mid-November in central NY! I’m still not done doing stuff that should be done (not telling you what still waits to get into the ever-cooling ground), but it was progress. Here are some images from under today’s partly-sun. Let’s focus on the color and save most of the winter interest for winter.
Anemone sylvestris winking out
Aster novae-angliae i think
passalong Korean mum, name unknown, but i like it
passalong lamium, probably in too much sun
passalong Stipa from Kris
Panicum virginicum
sedums as always
Buddy is also autumn colored
Hope you’re enjoying the colors wherever you are!
Sin City to Slaterville 
See. November can be a trip. Now if you can just hang in for the next three months. Really like the last one of Buddy.
That last Buddy shot is hilarious! And I totally LOVE the one of the stipa. I forgot all about bloom day – I’ll take this as a nudge (if I follow through as you did, it’ll be a passalong post). Enjoy that tanktop weather while it lasts!
Beauteous! You really take wonderful photos. That sedum, and the aster and the stipa! wow.
and that handsome dog…
Buddy is my favorite shot, particularly with is stick. He and our Penny would make good book ends.
Thanks for the encouragement, Craig, and the enthusiasm from everyone. It’s no surprise that this is turning into a dog blog. The Pooker is irresistable!
lynn, nice focus on the colors in your november garden – of both flora and fauna! and you’re so right – no need to call out winter interest when it isn’t even here… yet…! in the meantime, here’s to passalongs – plants and posts… :)
your photography is amazing. will gladly promote your new business on Twitter. may it be a blessing to you.
