So far I've harvested seed from my white and pink nicotiana, purple and red cleome, pink and purple annual dianthus, beautiful red celosia and purple king zinnia. I'm trying to get seeds from all of my lisianthus because those seeds are most expensive to buy. The pod left after the flower is spent seems to take a very long time to dry out and brown!! Everything about these beautiful flowers takes a long time!
I have some of the potted lisianthus inside already but I don't have room for all of them that are out there.
The only herb pots that I'll take in will be parsely, sage, dill and chives. I'll get more seed for basil and start them from scratch inside.
I've just started taking my tropical hibiscus(4 plants) and as soon as the leaves begin to die I'll put my pots of callas and cannas in the garage.
Made a very sad discovery......it looks like 2 of my rose bushes have rosettes disease!!!!!!!
Lots of things still blooming here. The roses actually like this cooler weather better than the hot summer. I've potted up some twigs from my red crape myrtle and put them in a pot with Fafard covered with a dome made out of a large plastic pretzel container. (I don't throw away any containers because I always find a use for them).
I really should go out and take some pictures before everything is gone.
OOoops.......I was so anxious to post something that I posted on the wrong thread
