Burnt Sienna

Fall color week on Elsie Marley. Pretty sure there's some Burnt Sienna in all the reddish-brownish-orangey goodness of this flower.

Brick Red

Brick Red for Fall Color Week on Elsie Marley. This is a Doily Stretcher I picked up for $3 at a garage sale in Shawano, Wisconsin. I have no idea how it was used, but I love it's graphic beauty.

Odd Fall Blooms

Not what I usually see in the garden in mid-September:


A single orange rose. I bought this vine in May and didn't expect any blooms this year. And the package said pink. However, orange is my favorite color (okay, tied with green) so I love it. Except it's in the "cool" garden with purples, blues and pinks. I do love contrast, though ...



Unknown purple flowers growing in the lawn. I think they're wild geraniums. Pleasant surprise because I usually only see flowers in the lawn in spring (other than dandelions, of course)



Pincushions, usually only seen in spring.




Forget-me-nots, planted in the vegetable garden two years ago, keep popping up.




JalapeƱo plant appears to want to provide one more harvest - let's hope the frost stays away long enough!





Could it be ... sunflowers!?! In mid-September? Oh, I hope, I hope they bloom before it gets too cold!!
