Thanks. They are so ugly in spring when the skunk cabbage-like leaves erupt. Then the leaves die and there's nothing there till now.

So sweet! Looking forward to your lily photos.

You can see the lilies behind the Black and Blue Salvia are starting to go dormant for the winter.Thumb of 2010-09-11/stilldew/c6159f

My garden spider has moved from the trellis to right beside my front door. If you look closely you can see her on the far right. The coleus are getting leggy. Will need to take cuttings soon to overwinter.Thumb of 2010-09-11/stilldew/07c4e1

When I open the door, the spider vibrates her web and makes sure I notice her. I think she moved near the plants where there is more moisure and it's cooler. I call her Hazel.Thumb of 2010-09-11/stilldew/49d9a4

Nice daffodils, Anthony. I don't have those here in Florida.

Very nice show, Susan. I know what you mean about the lantana spreading out. Mine are huge and they keep on going all winter. The butterflies love them.

This is tri-colored stromanthe. It puts on a good show in a shade garden.

The pummelos are doing fine. They should be ready in December. If you have never had a pummelo, put it on your bucket list. They are wonderful.
