"Crazy enough that I am able to be working on putting the garden to rest in the second week of November...but there are also fresh blooms of foxgove, gazania, snapdragons, and pansies. Strange weather! "

"Crazy enough that I am able to be working on putting the garden to rest in the second week of November...but there are also fresh blooms of foxgove, gazania, snapdragons, and pansies. Strange weather! "
