Final blooms and color of the season

My name is Alice and I live in Sweaburg , which is in southwestern Ontario .

This year I had trouble again finding all the bedding plant , such as salvia , that I would have wish . But now the yellowish marigolds(Tagetessp . , one-year ) are putting on a show , and they look sunny with the hot pink geraniums(Pelargoniumhybrids , annual ) .

These flowering kale(Brassicaoleracea , cool - time of year annual ) do n’t have much color yet . Themums(Chrysanthemum , hardiness differs by variety ) are still in pots , but as shortly as the flowers originate to fade the plan is to institute them in the garden and see if they will come in back next year . Some do and some do n’t .

Hydrangeas(pictured , Hydrangea paniculata , Zones 3–9 ) are among my best-loved flowers . Year after class they bloom so nice .

This is a picture of our backyard . Theblue spruce(Piceapungens , Zones 2–7 ) was wholly in the wrong spot , but we did not have the heart to cut it down because the birds love it . We prune the bottom , though , and it is now hardy enough for us to put some hang hoop on the bottom offshoot . This is what we see from our family room ’s big and low movie windowpane . We have not had a Robert Lee Frost yet , so everything looks passing nice still . I ca n’t start clearing till we have frost .

This is a view from the other side looking toward the deck of cards .

Thesedums(Hylotelephium spectabile , Zones 3–9 ) are so overnice right now , and the honeybees lie with them . The purplish simoleons is the eatable type(Brassica oleracea , probably the change ‘ Redbor’),but I set it for colour . It grow back from last twelvemonth after I cut it back in the outflow . It flowered with yellow flowers , which was something new to me .

These pictures of the front entry were consume at the beginning of October .
