The month of August has come to an end.
Summer sure passed fast this year.
We’ve had a lot of rain.
On the plus side we didn't have
to water flower as often.
It was great for the flowers
and gardening.
I planted Zinnas from seed.
Rudbekia
Theses perennials are
so pretty in the Fall,
in shades of orange,
yellow and browns, and
they are low maintenance
and long lasting.
Liqularia
Huge, around 7ft. tall.
Queen of the Meadow
Another tall plant.
In the Sunken Garden
Hollyhocks
A new Hollyhock
started from seed.
Nice colour,
Lemon, Lime
I planted Marigolds from
seed to deter bugs,
to place in my barrels and
with tomato plants,
I planted in pots.
I assumed they were
about 6 inches tall.
Surprise, they were 4ft tall.
African type.
They are call Crackerjack Marigolds.
So bright and stunning.
Helenium and Echinacea
Helenium 💛
One of my favourite flowers.
Pearly Everlasting
We had torrential rains which
damaged my Sunflower Garden
I managed to stake them up tied to poles
was flooded.
The bridge moved about 3ft.
My son came to visit from Vancouver.
In the photo, my son Daniel, DIL Marina
And grandsons Louis and Jacob.
Here I am in the middle.
My Grandsons have grown.
My daughter, Suzanne

New Carlisle beach.

The end of August
we had a Super Blue Moon,
lightning up the night sky.
The second full moon in
a month is considered a
Super Blue Moon.
It will not happen again
until 2037.
Sadly Summer is ending.
Happy Fall Everyone.
Thanks for your visit.
💛💛💛
