@freedombel Thank you for your kind words. I love my flowers and decorating my beds. To be truthful, there has been so much work this year battling the weeds and grass growing where I don't want it, that I am half way happy to see winter come so I can rest up. Although, I really don't like the cold and sometimes large snowfalls that we get. I just wish that winter didn't last so long.
I have not had any problems with Japanese beetles this year. I have been battling wasps. My DH and I have both been stung by them. He is really allergic to them and so far, I am not.
