We had some gorgeous late summer days in September, with lots of greens and blues everywhere … they made me feel a bit like living in a fairytale :-)
Now it looks like autumn is here …
But sorting through my sunny photographs I just can't help posting some more garden pics!
 |
| House and Garden at the beginning of September … |
 |
| … and mid September. The Morning Glories are growing … |
 |
| … and that's at the end of September! |
I have been asked quite a few times if the plants might bring a lot of insects into the house? Amazingly (and fortunately!), that is not the case. Maybe it's just more attractive for them outside, with all the pollen of the many blossoms ;-) And maybe these chaps help too:
We have many of these, forming a kind of second veil in front of the morning glory curtain. I find them a bit spooky, but interesting to watch nevertheless. And their webs are just beautiful, like mini works of art! (So far I refuse to think about where they might retreat to when it gets really cold …)
Some more blue September blossoms …
 |
| The Bluebeard is always humming with bees. |
 |
| A little Toad Lily. |
… and other colours are there too:
 |
| Hibiscus … |
 |
| … Clary … |
 |
| and Brown Sunflowers. |
Plus lots of green foliage that add to the jungle feeling:
 |
| Dwarf Tamarillos and Caiguas. |
 |
| The Dwarf Tamarillo umbels form beautiful silhouettes against the afternoon sun. |
Now we are hoping for a mild October, we just want to enjoy all this a bit longer!
