The sun is weakening when it is not hidden behind the clouds which form regularly.  The temperature is dropping. Rain splatters the plants pushing them into the dirt.  I still have plenty to pick in the garden: roses, dahlias, hydrangeas, fushias, a smattering of other things. This week I wanted to highlight an antique glass vase I inherited from my mother-in-law, graced with a few garden roses.

Flowers include: unnamed rose, Climbing Joseph’s cloak rose, fushia and evergreen huckleberries.
