And suddenly, it's October. It's October 4th today; the clouds are moving in and looks like we'll finally have some rain. Fingers crossed as we're still in a drought. Not much new happening here in southern NH. I haven't seen our hummingbirds in a couple days now; a sign that fall truly is here. Here's a few pictures from around the garden today.

Beehives were busy this morning working on building their reserves for winter.
Canyon Road rose -- love this rose. Red doesn't photograph well for me. This rose is a sultry, velvety red. Doesn't show well in the photo.
And, check out the foliage on this rose. As an experiment, I purposefully did not fertilize or spray this rose this season. As you can see, no disease. Especially no blackspot which is usually an issue in my garden.
Apricot Peach mix strawflowers I started from Johnny's seeds this past spring. Still blooming here in early October.
The bees were busy this past spring pollinating the blue princess hollies. (Note: you need both a male and a female holly to get berries).
Bees loving the late season cosmos.
