We went “up north”
to visit relatives this past week. We stopped at a garden center in their town,
looking for a new tree for their place. I wandered around looking at all the
lovely flowers at the garden center.
I admired this vining flower hanging on
one of the arbors, but had to ask what it was. The garden lady told me “Mandevilla
Vine” – then she added “it’s on half price right now”. Sold! This one was so
large that the garden center had already added an extension hook to the pot so
that it could hang from the arbor. Well, the vine had so entwined the hook that
the garden lady said just take it. We got it home and it is now hanging on my
arbor.
It’s pink flowers echo the Honeysuckle vine flowers, so it seems to
blend right in. There are plenty of buds just waiting to open. I think this will be pretty for at least 8 weeks!
Along the clematis
fence, the Sweet Autumn Clematis is ready to pop! Probably tomorrow.
Along the driveway,
the Fall Anemones are strutting their stuff.
