Autumn Days



                                                                           Hello everyone,

                                    It seems autumn is marching right along here so I thought I would take
                                    a few more shots of the garden before we move into November.
                                       The Gardener's Cottage above in an autumn light.
                                                                    Our Chelsea Garden
                                                 In the last couple of days most of the perennials has been cut down with
                                                    a handheld bush wacker by my husband ~ so already it has changed.
                                                                 Still lots of blooms on this rose.                          
                                                                      Sit for a spell.

                                                      Autumn colors in our garden
                                                                   An early Autumn picnic day.
                            A favorite walking trial though the woods near our home

                                        I hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend and thank you for
                                         visiting me.
                                             
                                                     Carolyn

Lovely autumn colours in your garden and the woods look just magnificent, so nice to have a picnic there. Your embroidered (?) pillow looks so nice.

Susan said...

Hi Carolyn...Loved your autumn in the garden shots. And now was that peach cobbler??? mmmm mmmm mmmm That looked good, too. Knowing you baked it, it HAS to be good! Susan

Kathy said...

Just beautiful, Carolyn! I may have missed this if you've posted about it in the past, but as a gardener, I'm always curious about the details of your gardening chores in the spring and fall. I'm guessing you compost all of the perennials that you cut down. Do you have a formal compost system? Would you consider doing a post on getting the beds ready in the spring and clean-up in the fall? I can't imagine the enormity of these chores considering the number and size of your garden beds. Thank you for sharing your lovely home and garden.

Growing up watching/reading Anne of Green Gables, one of my dreams is to travel to PEI. Your gardens make me want to go even more! I live near the coast and we hardly have any fall foliage, so I'm just soaking in your pictures.

Oh my autumn in you gardens are glorious. And that wonderful path looked so inviting especially when a cup of warm tea is at the end of it. Happy Fall my friend.
