Many blooms are still blooming on both the white and purple butterfly bushes in Dustin's garden. We are suppose to have our first freeze this weekend, so they may be gone soon. For now I will enjoy the beauty. Sharing one of the large white blooms with you. There are still a few little butterflies visiting as well. Enjoying the nice weather and blooms. We never know what tomorrow holds.

I don't have anything blooming in my yard at the present time. I'm glad you still have nice weather and beautiful blooms. Keep posting photos so that I can continue to enjoy them!

@CarolDM I didn't realize it until this morning, but our temps have gone down as well. I hope fall is finally arriving here in Florida.

Those are so pretty. I’d pick them to bring into the house to enjoy before the freeze.

@CarolDM Such a bountiful garden you have. No, they don't last long, but enjoy them while they last.

@DocAndersen Maybe since I am a little far south, I get more. Or maybe they enjoy Narnia.

@CarolDM they don't last's long 's roses usually, here 't least anyhow. if ya spritz 'em with some water though (mightn't be needed coz y'ave natural humidity, lol) their scent can be 'njoyed 'ndoors. used to make my mamaw bouquets from the garden 's well 's a few wildflowers. she'd lost her vision, but loved the diff'rent textures 'n scents.

Yes the bush is still covered in blooms. And the purple one as well. Oh I know that pink is pretty. I usually bring the roses inside but never these.

It's very pretty. I looked at the weather map when I got up and got happy. There were snowflakes in Green Bay. I know they didn't stick and I won't see snow on the ground when I leave here shortly, but seeing them on the map made me happy.

Ah now I remember what it was I had to do, Gladioli, white, new bloom. And more Raspberries Meant to take photos of both today but sadly forgot to do so. I see you have another comment from someone from Scotland. Imagine, 1 Scotsman and one from Edinburgh both commenting on your post.
