Those are gorgeous, Gordon. I especially love the double white. Thanks for sharing. I've got to take cuttings today, we have a frost/freeze warning for tonight. Maybe some will continue blooming indoors.

Love all those blooms.
Yep, winter is knocking on the doors of the south too. I just don't care for the cold but know it will be here eventuality.
So am scrabling about getting plants ready to go to bed for the winter. Are you building a greenhouse for them this year???

It's frustrating when it gets cold suddenly for a few days then goes right back to warm and sunny. We've had a very abrupt change from summer to winter.

Here, as long as the ground is still warm, just covering with frost cloth, sheets or blankets keeps the brugs growing and blooming for a couple more months. There's enough heat radiating up from the warm ground to keep the plants warm. If it gets cold in Feb. or March it's a different story, though.
