Flowers on Friday by Scylla

These pictures were taken November 6th. Many of our kitty friends that live further north then we do were surprised we still had flowers this late into the fall. We still had flowers and butterflies until the night of November 18th. That night Jack Frost came to visit and now some of the flowers are dead, Mommy will have to cut them down this weekend if it is warm enough. Some of the flowers look unhappy but may recover, now that the temperatures are warmer again. We usually do not have a hard frost until winter, sometimes not even then.

We love the pink Lantana. It is one of the flowers that Mr. Frost hurt. Mommy will cut the dead part off and it should come back this spring. Depending on what the weather does it may bloom again this fall. It was in the 70's Thursday so Mommy did some work in the butterfly garden.

Isn't this Angel Trumpet lovely? It is safe in the greenhouse, so you don't have to worry about it.

The obligatory glamor shot of my glamorous self. Mommy got all the dead zinnias out of this bed, she made a bad mistake though she accidentally cut our Goldflame Honeysuckle down. We hopes it will grow back. Mommy is trying to root some of it in the greenhouse....

I am enjoying the Butterfly Garden for as long as I can since winter is on the way. We are hoping the Red Hibiscus will bloom before it dies. It has lots of buds on it. We wouldn't buy this plant again. It is very high maintenance and...
