Re: first frost

I enjoyed reading Nan's description of her garden so much. Here on the
south coast of BC, we have had a long, wonderful Indian summer (after a
mostly disappointing "real" summer), which ended today with clouds all
day and rain this evening. The few plants still blooming in my garden -
mostly roses - must have liked the coolness and moisture. I have no
fall-blooming perennials (not sure why I haven't planted any) but
noticed lots of asters, dahlias, 'mums, and others whose names I don't
know while driving around my neighbourhood this afternoon. No frost
expected, of course - if only the buttercups would stop blooming in my
dried-up front lawn! Could I tell the neighbours I put them there on
purpose? Perhaps not....
Cheers!
