A good 3 to 4 cm of lake effect snow. Had to get out the shovel. A bit giddy to see the white stuff
First snow

Dahlias for daze
A long slow fall. A few days of heavy fog, out of the ordinary for us. Last cut of the dahlias. Pulled the last tomatoes. Can’t believe the colours this year. The Cornus Venus is simply resplendent. Dug in the last of the two cedars from last years winter planters. See, getting things done.
The last bloom
First light frost last night. The poppy seeds I planted late have given one last blush of summer.
Waiting for a hard frost
A great day of rain today. A proper soaking before the leaves start to fall.
Started removing excess fruit. So beautiful
Yesterday’s pick
Tomatoes are coming thick and fast. Been a dry summer with about half or less normal rainfall. Lots of heat and humidity.
A beautiful day in the…garden
Summer colour
Most excellent summer
Mind you, we only got half our average rainfall in June. But other than a couple of hot spells, weather wise, it’s been excellent.
Summer solstice
My time of the year! Lots to see and lots to do in the garden. Love it
Lilacs inside and out
They’re perfect this year and the fragrance from this old tree! A warm snap sped them up.
Planted bush beans and cucumbers today potted on the lemon verbena and red bergamot from Richters. My order arrived yesterday. Live plants in the mail! The Beth root / red trillium has gone in by the Sycamore. Why did I buy dragon’s blood clover? Put it in a pot for now.
Fun in an apple blossom
