Thursday in the Garden with Socks


Our report for the Society of Feline Gardeners. Do go by Jonesie's to see what everybuddy else has going on.

I thinks it was Alfie & Milo who suggested photographing fall leaves. We don't have many fall leaves here most of our trees are evergreens but the Popcorn Trees put on a nice show for us. They has seeds that look like cooked popcorn. They were already planted here when Mommy & Daddy bought the house, Mommy wouldn't have planted them because they are so invasive but we do likes the fall color and the birds enjoy the seeds, so we are keeping them.


 Speaking of fall color the Cuphea looks purrfect for fall.

 The roses are pretty too.

 The zinnias look nice, boy do those flowers have a lot of blooming time.


 I have been very busy making sure Mommy gets everything tided up while the weather is nice.

 Doesn't the Candlebush look pretty.
 The Ginger Lilies.

 I don't know what this Butterfly is doing, maybe laying eggs are something. The Butterflies are still fluttering around.

Purple Lantana

 More Fall Leaves for you.....................



Daddy got the greenhouse put back together, but Mommy has to kill the ants that built a nest in there before she can put the flowers back in there, so they are still in the garage. She cut some of them back today and weeded around them.

 We still has lots of work to do in the yard.

 Mommy needs to trim the vines at the Hummingbird Cottage.


See these little berry things. They are the seeds from our Gold Flame Honeysuckle. The birds likes to eat them. ~Socks
