September is here - and I'm glad I can still see flowers here and there in our yard. Our perennials started blooming so early this year that I wondered if there'd be any left by late summer.
In the front, there are Japanese anemones (below)...
Phlox - in four colors - brighten different parts of the yard. Clusters here and there originally came in four small pots I bought at a plant nursery years ago: white, bright pink and two tone pink, as well as a purple I kept moving around, trying to find the best place for it.
As they grew, I divided them - until I could see them in every direction.
I also have a few asters.
The yellow "outhouse plant" came from a friend.
The sedum are beginning to turn pink. These hardy flowers are the last to disappear. They don't collapse when winter comes. I've seen them sticking out of snow banks all winter, like signposts reminding me that flowers will return in spring.
