Last flowers of the season

Tweet

Hello fellow mylotters. I have taken some pictures of the last flowers I gleaned from my yard on Thanksgiving. Friday was to be a very cold day, and I thought they would not last any longer outside. We had a lot of warm days here, above 40 degrees F. Our nights were colder, many below 32 degrees F and that is freezing. I was pleasantly surprised to see my roses still growing and flowering even though we had such cold nights. I didn't think they would survive but they did. I picked some for my friend who hosted Thanksgiving dinner too. She has the best and biggest rose that I didn't get a picture of I am surprised they lasted through the frosts we had, but the days were still pretty warm yet and the frost didn't kill them off until Friday. Friday was a very cold day, and so is today. I'm sure the rest of the mums left in the yard have died off, but I didn't look.
