Frosty Morn

Woke up to 27 degrees and a heavy frost. It has turned out to be a pretty sunny day with a high of 45. Except for stepping out briefly to get some photos, I've not been motivated to go out. Text and photos by Phillip Oliver, Dirt Therapy

    Your fall garden is glorious, Phillip. As always, I'm especially impressed by your combinations. The variegated cistus is fabulous with that goldenrod.

    Fantastic fall garden, it's been my favorite season and your garden is a good example of why that is. I'm assuming the Echeveria will go inside for winter?
