Isn't it lovely to still have plenty of colour Val? yours are looking beautiful..mine aren't too bad either..Cosmos,Roses and fuchsias still looking good,and Begonia Semperflorens look as though they are a permanent fixture..of course the won't be for much longer, I guess..but what a lot of pleasure we are all having :o)

Aren't Heidi Anne's leaves shiny? Mine aren't like that - do you polish them? Still plenty of fuchsia flowers here and a rose or two but not much else.

Thank you everyone for your lovely comments.
Stera... No I don't polish them!!!

Amy... Think this is the best Dahlia I've had, going to do my best to save the corms... hasn't worked yet with other Dahalias, but fingers crossed!!

Sb...I love these too.These were divisions, from my front flower island, gave quite a few away as well.

Sandra.... yes my begonias in the front garden are still going strong, and not looking "tatty" either.Reckon theres another months colour still to come!

Your garden looks lovely Gralew and still plenty of rewards for you to enjoy, I think we all still have flowers and its so good, long may they continue, even if it still means a spot of deadheading and smaller blooms, the autumn colours are lovely, that dahlia is a beauty.....

Wow Val its all looking so colourful, you have some beauties there I do love the Kaffir Lilies and the Daliahs [one I have never got round to trying, but yours may just prompt me.] That Hebe looks very attractive with all the flower spikes, which one is it? Pleased to seethe Sedum is flowering nicely for you, Mine are filling the borders with their flower heads too.;0)

What colours do you have Sb, I've seen a nice white one, but I can't remember which Gc it was in.When OH's hand has recovered from his op. I'll get him to take me round a few, till I find it! Lol
