You still have lots going on in your garden! I planted some Mums... but I think it's too hot for them right now. I've seen Kale used in beds... nice contrast with your lovely Mums.
Still looks very pretty with lots of colourful plants still doing well. Does it get quite cold there in the winter? By October where I live, there aren't any flowers at all left.
You have very lovely flowering plants SnS. I especially like the plumed grass plant and the mixture of cabbages in amongst your other plants. There are a number of folks over here that use decorative veg to compliment their flower gardens. I think that Droopy has done that as well. Yours look so nice.
SewNsow I love the flowering kale also. I always say I would like to plant it my flower gardens but then I do not do it. Next year I will definitely get some added to my flower bed for fall color. Most of my flowers are done blooming. Nice pic's. Oh ya. We try and not plant the blue spruce around here. They are not native to Wisconsin and we have had a beautiful 30ft one die of a fungal disease they get that.
Glad you like the kale. It still looks very fresh. Tooty,these are our 2nd planting of spruces. We had lovely tall ones that died from fungal disease. Cariboo,Yes it can get very cold here. sNs
The kales look great. On this side of the pond they are sold as ornamentals in the garden centres and charge a fortune for them Nice to see that you still have plenty of colour.
