September

The first day of September. My month of birth and soon the ending of summer and the beginning of beautiful crisp autumn. It's still summer weather here. We have a break in the extreme temperature but it was humid today and the 90's return soon.Time to get those houseplants before gardening turns indoors. So far 2 have joined my house for the winter. Hopefully permanently.

Changed the wreath that hang spring and summer. It looks sad. I'll have to hang it properly and make a better ribbon. In time. I think I want a yellow ribbon this year. When I woke up this morning my priority was putting fresh sheets on the bed and cleaning dust bunnies from under my bed. The bedroom looks and feels fresher. Didn't realize it was the first day of September until I thought of my pumpkin a gift from mom years ago that I take out every fall. Today was the day. Wonder if pumpkins and gourds have arrived? I'll find out tomorrow but it seems too warm for live pumpkins yet.


I have 5 amaryllis that bloomed during the summer but haven't gone dormant. I have to re read their care to see if I was supposed to stop watering them or just let them continue to get nutrients form the foliage and make the bud for the next bloom before holding water and storing in the cellar till they're ready to bloom again.


Lemon scented.


They're lovely and always welcome in my house.

Couldn't pick just one picture. Peach roses, snapdragons, veronica, and liatris.




Have a beautiful Evening.
