JOYS OF SEPTEMBER

I been cleaning my garden to get ready for some planting this fall, it has been a never ending kind of job. Thanks to me, since I neglected it all summer long.Now I have unwanted grass all over my garden, some of my favorite perennials didn't survive,and wasps built nests all over the garden...
Well I don't know if I will be able to ever have my garden completely back...
But I most say that  all this work still doesn't stop me from enjoying the outside .
My garden still have a  beauty ,and somehow brings a sweet quietness to my heart

  • So lately here is what we been doing in the garden....

playing in the outside, she was  to help me  to water the garden...

...finding the most beautiful insects...

I never seen a lady bug like this one, it has a clear shell around it's head and body.
This dragonfly is so big and the colors so bright...



...and the most cute creatures...
This little rabbit loves to eat our unwanted grass
(Rabbit + veggie garden...sounds like a familiar story)

I was at GOODWILL one day ,and look what I found ,this glass cage,now is used to observer little creatures from our garden, we will keep this little tree frog for a day
Oh, and  enjoying the beautiful September sundown

So do you have plans for your fall garden ?
I am planning to plant some tomatoes, lettuce, snap peas,carrots,squash, onions and garlic.
I will also will try to plant some seed that I still have from spring ,like corn, and green beans-I don't know if will work since the weather is getting cooler and not hot .
For my flower garden I will be planting again
poppies(this time the poppy oriental), larkspur and johnny jump up, I also want to add some Bishops-Flower and more Brazilian verbenas.If you want to add any of those flowers to your garden, this is the time to do it from seeds.
