Aww, the poor Foxgloves! Scary, sad plant transitions this time of year. This is a good Halloween post.
ReplyDeletethese look so pretty with the frost... like little tubular jewels in your garden:)
ReplyDeleteAch! Beautiful! I'm eating up your frosty pictures. : ) Yes, Julie, we do have a lot in common! How old are you kiddos? Mine are 10, 8 and 6. Two boys and a girl. They keep me hopping! I visited Pennsylvania (Dutch country) as a child and I remember thinking it was one of the most beautiful places I'd ever visited. Your pictures confirmed it!
ReplyDeleteThey are really stunning even in ice....I know what you mean about work in the garden. I have been full out all Sept and October catching up...still lots to do this spring since I will not get to it all, but it will wait until spring...that's the nice thing about the garden...so forgiving and patient...
ReplyDeleteVery pretty! You capture it very well.
ReplyDeleteNow this is something you don't see very often. Fall-blooming Digitalis! I love their frosty look too. Stay warm!
ReplyDeleteWhy does frost look so good on blooms and plants? The crystallization just adds such a magical quality...beautiful!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, stunning pics, but it's soooo cold.

Oh, NO! FROST - the dreaded word, I don't want to think of it. I like the foxglove, a beautiful colour. Christina
ReplyDeleteI really have to give this foxglove another try in my garden. Such a great color.
