They’re Still Beautiful

The temperature got down into the mid-thirties Sunday night here on the Plateau.  We had a frost watch here in Cumberland County, but as far as I can tell none of our plants got nipped.

But it definitely feels like autumn.  The days are cool and crisp and it feels good to be out working in the yard, even if we  are having to clean up a lot of leaves now.  Most of the leaves are brown — we still haven’t had a great deal of color around here.

One nice thing is that the roses are still blooming and looking very good.  We now have several in full bloom and more are in bud.  We plan on enjoying them for as long as we can.
