Last Flowers of the Growing Season

I took these photos the day before our first hard frost(11/2). They truly were the last of the season :o(

New Blooms and a Little More

My new Hosta

I love Violets so much that I leave the wild ones to grow in my flower bed.

The Labrador Violets are blooming, too.

I love the color of this Daffodil.
[edit: My mom informed me this is a narcissus, who knew? I thought they were one in the same]

Bleeding Hearts

Mutant Daffodil (still hasn't opened up)

Hyacinth with Daffodils

Primrose
[They've seen better days. I am pretty sure the slugs are feasting, time to buy some beer!
I don't know which would be more effective, them drinking it or me.:o)]

I had an order for my Space Boy Ultimate Play Dough Collection so that's what I did yesterday, while it rained! Now off to the Post Office.

This weekend is supposed to be incredible(70s and 80s!!) The little boy and I will be going to the Holden Arboretum tomorrow for their Arbor Day celebration(and to take in the glorious weather) The rest of the weekend I hope we can do some serious work in the gardens and get the little one's sand box cleaned out and filled with new sand.

Photos of my first year Phlox and Crocosmia. I'm very pleasantly surprised with both. So pretty!
