It’s about time I share what’s happening out in my garden this month.
With the weather turning cooler, we haven’t been out there as much, and I am missing it. I’m not as on top of it as I was, so I’ve also quite a lot more weeding to do, a daunting task! Flowers are continuing to bloom, and there’s still plenty of colour out there, mainly pinks and purples…
I also see signs of the season ending, with leaves turning orange and brown, and my flower patch all going over, too..
As well as documenting what’s been happening out in the garden each month here, I’m also keeping my gardening journal. It’s allowing me to chart the changes and make plans for this autumn. I’ve lots of replanting to do, as well as sowing seeds, finding homes for new plants that’ll be arriving soon, along with that mountain of weeding! The problem, I’m finding, is that I like going out there and tending to it when it’s sunny and warm, so these next couple of months I’ll have to adjust to gardening in the cooler, wetter weather, so I will be testing out my gardening mettle!
How’s your garden growing?
Stunning photos lovely, got some garden envy going on over here!
Ah, thank you!
Wow what beautiful flowers you have. Next year I will definitely be trying to really spruce up our garden as I only planted a few this year x
Thank you. Ah, it becomes an addiction once you start!
Its looking good, but yes it’s a challenge getting out in the more interesting weather days isn’t it. But I think once you’ve got a love for something, it stays with you and motivates you through 🙂
Yes, I hope so. I’ve been getting things down while the kids play, but they’re out there less now, so it’s becoming trickier to find the time!
weeding has featured heavily in our garden and on our allotment recently too. I love the pinks, so vivid against the grey sky x
So many weeds! Thank you x
Your pale pink rose is gorgeous! What are the pink flowers on the long stalks (5th photo down)? Your garden to-do list sounds very much like mine at the moment 🙂
Thank you. They’re Japanese Anemones, and are coming back stronger and stronger every year – gorgeous! Yep, much to do out there! x
It must be such a pleasure being amongst all those flowers when you do get outside! The pale pink rose is simply luscious.
It is, when I do get out! Thank you x
so beautiful Jocelyn. i love and miss all the wild flowers!!! can’t believe the weather is already cooling down for you. xx
Neither can I! Much cooler here now, sadly!
Wow your lilies are beautiful! It is sad seeing the summer go but your garden is still beautiful x #HDYGG
Thank you. Yes, the autumn colours will be pretty to see, too, and there is still quite a lot blooming out there, thank you x
Your garden is looking lovely – I love the shades of pinks and purples and wish mine was looking as colourful!
Thank you. There’s plenty going on still, I just need to actually get out there!
Love all the blossoms. Good luck with the weeding. We only have a decked area now out back but one day I hope to dress it up a bit.
Thank you. Loads of pots and climbers will make it gorgeous, I’m sure.
Autumn is coming here too now. Your flowers are beautiful! And you can enjoy your photos for many more years to come!
That’s very true 🙂
Your garden is looking beautiful, I love all the pinks and purples. I’ve never been very good at the weeding bit… I’m going to have to learn to love it in our new garden 🙂 #HDYGG
Thanks, Sara. Oh yes, you need to get into it! x
The weather has been so crazy unpredictable here that I’ve been ducking out to weed but that’s about it. I’ve been buying more flowers for indoors now the builders are outdoors. Still up for a cut flower garden section, I’ve been telling lots of family and friends about your post on how to do it this week!
Thanks for sharing xx
At least you’ve managed to weed! And thanks so much – nice to think there’ll be more patches cropping up next year! X
Great photos – the lilies are gorgeous – although the seasons are changing it’ll be interesting to see how your garden changes with them.
Thank you. Yes, I do look forward to seeing the changes x
