As the fall season is upon us and the canning season has been in full force. I’m harvesting about the last things in our garden. It has been a great year for our gardens and we have been richly blessed. I hope you are enjoying all that this season has to offer!

These are the Autumn Joy Sedums. They change with the season from pink to a dark rose color. They are a great addition to a fall garden.

These are the Fall Asters in shades of pink and Purple.

Lavender Roses

Purple Phlox

Knock Out Roses in full Bloom again!

Our mums this year are in full bloom, blooming in yellow, pink and burgundy/red.

Jalapeño Peppers in a pot and White Bacopa.

Autumn Blaze Maple

Pumpkins, Butternut Squash, Spaghetti Squash and Banana Squash.

Peppers were the best growers in the vegetable garden. It was such a HOT Summer they grew amazingly. But my Blackberries were very scarce.

Delicious Red Apples, we had a bumper crop the sweetest apples we’ve ever had so far in our yard.

Fall Raspberries and my potted Egg Plants.

Potatoes, Beets and Onions ready to be eaten or stored in a cool storage room or garage.

Bartlett Pears picked green and put in a cool place to ripen and be eaten or canned.

If you’re ready to put your gardens to bed for the winter and want to apply amendments to your garden see garden soil prep and lawn.. It’s also a good idea to put a Winter Fertilizer on your lawns just before the first winter snow or first part to middle part of November.

See here for winterizing roses and a winterizer for your lawn.

Happy Harvest!
