    Very pretty Mums, I especially like the first one. The Mums around here are finished for the most part. Your photos look so nice with the sun on the blooms, it looks so warm!!

    I'm muttering along with Droopy 'cause all my flowers are dying. :( I only have a few polyanthus, a mahonia and some winter violas left in bloom. :'(
    However, now I can look at all your beautiful mums whenever I like - they'll certainly cheer me up. :-D Your orange one is spectacular. Do let us see the others when they open.

    They're gorgeous, Cheryl.

    The mornings have been a little cool, but by noon, it's time to change from jeans and tennis shoes to shorts and flip flops. But as soon as the sun starts to go down, it's time to change back to the jeans.
    Don't know why the Mums are so late this year. And I'll definitely take photos again when the other's open all the way up.

    Very nice, the first picture is really an artistic shot (worthy of being made into postcards)!
