The bloom looks nice and full. It's fun to have some flowers to anticipate in fall. <br /><br />That first picture of the grapes surrounded by fall leaves is what I love about fall, with all the bounty and colour.Northern Shadehttp://northernshade.ca/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13309574.post-57070234609906191932009-10-05T00:41:54.632-05:002009-10-05T00:41:54.632-05:00How much for to find that much of what I grow here...How much for to find that much of what I grow here in Southern California does so well in your neck of the woods.Lydiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03215242522396155812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13309574.post-40448087167921665842009-10-03T22:12:17.454-05:002009-10-03T22:12:17.454-05:00Jim, ah!

I like that Hibiscus and I would NEVER consider it a weed. <br /> You do have a lovely view from your Kitchen window, I get to look at a swingset and a trampoline from my kitchen window.
