So many beautiful blossoms in your garden; some I have never heard of before. Something I never paid much attention to until I started gardening, was that the sun rises to the right of our home in spring and to the left in fall. Simple, but always a reminder we are in motion. Lovely post of a tired garden that still has much beauty.

As for the mahonia bloom time I would have to say in my experience 'Charity' blooms last longer than 'Soft Caress' blooms.

Hopefully both will make it through the winter. The pot will come inside and the foundation plants will be heavily mulched.

It's my dream to go away for a few days, leaving my plants to their own devices, and come back to surprise blooms instead of dead plants. Mahonia 'Soft Caress' seems to have a longer bloom season than 'Charity' - is that the case or my imagination? My garden is short on yellow flowers at this time of year and I've been thinking of adding that plant.Kris Petersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07097260283693156795noreply@blogger.com
