Only a few days ago I posted Five Flowers still in bloom in my garden and now this morning the leaves looked so pretty with a light dusting of overnight frost.
I love how the days change at this time of year.

Five Things: with thanks to Sian at High in the Sky

…still flowering in my garden in November.

I took these pictures at 08:00am this morning (I know…couldn’t sleep) The sun was so bright, the sky so blue and Sian’s Five Things popped into my head.
There was no one about, so still in my nightie I picked my way around the jungle that is supposed to be a garden and saw eleven plants still in flower. Here are five of them.

Zephrini drouhin, so pretty, quite small now but no perfume. I suspect it’s just too cold.

I have forgotten the name of this Fuchsia which I bought years ago in the Lost Gardens of Heligan

This little Lobelia is flowering away happily as if it was still summer

Surely this is the last little Welsh Poppy? I was pleased to see her this morning as she reminds me of my beautiful friend who’s birthday is/would have been this month.

I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw this Philadelphus flower yesterday. It is too high up for me to tell if it has its wonderful orange perfume. Do you notice the buds too?
