It’s late September…

and the asters/Michaelmas daisies are in full flower, with one exception.  The biggest clump will definitely need sorting out in the spring, which as you can see is now far too big and sprawling over the plot and the adjacent grass path.

The exception mentioned above is the white flowering Twinkling Stars which is just starting to flower, and is one of my favourites.

Although I’ve made a start on clearing the flowers patches it’s a bit stop and start at the moment as the cosmos ( see below), nasturtiums and pot marigolds are all flowering better now than they did all through the summer.

It’s dull and overcast today so I’ll be mostly armchair gardening.  However the week ahead is looking calm, dry and mostly sunny with temperatures into the high teens C / low  60’s F which is ideal to do plenty of plotting.

Have a good week, and take care!

  1. Your asters are looking great. Like you, the weather here in Kentucky is ideal for gardening right now and I was doing some cleanup yesterday and enjoying the asters and goldenrod in bloom here.

  2. It’s good to see plenty of colour still around at this time of year. I’ve cleared my summer bedding out of my pots already and planted up autumn/winter containers, I wanted to get them established before the colder weather arrives.
