AUTUMN CALLING....

As I look at the leaves turning and falling around us, I realize Autumn is on its way.

These mums were for sale at the supermarket.  


Ornamental peppers also.
I love this color combination.

  2. Hi Denise,
    Same over here with Autumn, our summer visiting birds have all virtually headed south for Africa, lucky things. I'm not an Autumn or Winter person.
    Lovely blaze of colour, at least that reminds us of Summer.
    All the best, John

    1. Hi John, thank you. I will probably be looking at my flowers in the middle of winter, looking forward to the next growing season :) All the best to you too.

  3. The mums are beautiful, Denise, as are the peppers! I like buying the tight budded mums so they last for the season. Love the Horowitz quote. I must write it down. Enjoy a lovely weekend. ♥

  4. The red and purple color combinations are beautiful!! And I have never seen purple peppers! I bet they are only decorative and cannot be eaten.

    1. Aren't they Ginny? Just love them. I believe these are only meant for show, not to be eaten.

  6. I love the colors of fall esp those peppers! Beautiful. Leaves are getting lighter here, a lot falling but I think that might be lack of rain cause they are laying there all brown. Funny, we have been short on rain but my yard is still pretty and green.....just thankful that it seems to have stopped growing! Haha

  10. Crysanths always remind me of Autumn. I bought some individual plants to replace the Summer pansies, but the large pots you show are also in the garden section of the supermarkets. They last a long time so I might buy a pot as they're not too expensive and good value.
