Lovely plants @beautyisfoundwithin.

This is blooming I think it's cafe au lait dahlia which is meant to be a soft pink blush but has come out white but quite striking against a purple salvia

Gorgeous @applecatchers36

@applecatchers36
That’s is awesome 😊

Autumn colours

The clematis is still flowering but the passed ones look like this

The leaves against that sky are peak Autumn (& stunning) AnneKipanki

Thanks @applecatchers36.

@AnneKipankiwoo
Those passed clematis look like they are ideal for a Halloween bouquet
@AnneKipankitoo your beautiful fir tree has come full circle from last year..
And your changing colours are lovely
How are the colours of your NDN's.? Last year they were magnificent. How about now,?

A new little animal to add to my DS and DDIL's menagerie...a rainbow skink...I thought it was a snake! WooooWoowooooWOOoo

It’s heard you are the best restaurant in town!🍽

@AnneKipankiWOO
I guess the word is really getting around even to the doormat eating mouse

Busy weekend. 2 garden centres visited. Cut hedges and mown the lawn. More planters ready for winter and the front hanging baskets changed for winter colours.

@Robin233
You were busy! Lovely planters and hanging baskets

Just got back from a 3 week east coast visit..My DH was very distraught that he'd loved the flower box to death that I'd put together for him before I left..
Poor diddums...I'd forgotten to tell him that some of the flowers were annuals and they were supposed to die out

Let him feel guilty
New name !

Yes!
Oh, @AnneKipankitoo
I just couldn't do that...he takes his temporary gardening career vert seriously....especially when those darn squirrels ate his canary Island Palm 😂
Speaking of squirrels.....look what they were up to whilst I was away! Dug out the slope up under the ice plant and made a huge mess throwing dirt and rocks about and down the culvert cover..."Hahahalol, She's away, so we're gonna play!"
Well, they got quite a baptism ceremony yesterday afternoon.."splish, splash, they were takin' a bath!"

And look at these volunteer sweetpea seedings...not a drop of water, tender loving care..nothing!

@Robin233
How is your Passionfruit vine doing? I've attached a photo I took yesterday. Before I went back east I harvested about 50 purple fruit...now there are a zillion green ones that have just started to grow. I don't know if you can see what I've done in the photo...I have a central pole at the plant site and then I've taken coated stereo speaker wire I had lying about ( I'm big into repurposing cheap ) and fanned it out over the drive. I then attached it to various things poking out of my roof...top of the fireplace, plumbing vents, etc...I hope a big wind doesn't blow through and cause my roof to go sailing
The vines love to be supported so with a little help they will attach to the wires.
Oh, it's me, Sweetpea

Uh, yeah...no photo..I guess I'll have to wait to attach it tomorrow

No further flowers on the passion fruit vine. I saw one today with at least 5 new blooms.
Last week one of my vines actually partly fell off the trellis and to be retreaded. Wind I think.

We also had a frost which seemed to upset my voila (either that or the wood pigeons sat on them).

Oh no, @Robin233 , not the dreaded viola smashing wood pigeon?
I'll keep my fingers crossed for yours to bloom...I think it took mine awhile to bloom, too. The vine may need to grow some more to support the blooms. Is the vine growing at all?
We park under our vine so every once in a while one will plunk down on the bonnet, roll down the drive and down the street because we are on a huge hill.

@Robin233
Those red flowers coming out of the green leaves are from an errant bougainvillea branch

It looks lovely SP.
Hope you can support your passion @Robin233.

Ha ha they are like the squirrels 🐿
@FarrahformerlySwtPea
Your Passion flower plant / is awesome.
And the views from your home must be spectacular!

Very true @Robin233
