Don't those sweet peas look lovely with the rain drops on them? :-D I really must get around to planting some more in my garden next year. This year the squirrels either chewed on them or dug them up so I didn't get a single flower.
I LOVE THAT 3RD PHOTO!!! But then you know I love pink!! Everything looks wonderful! I have one purple sweet pea that volunteers every year It has chosen a bad spot to grow, right at the bottom of the step but I can't bring myself to pull it out :-? I have a suggestion, since October is Breast Cancer awareness Month you should put together a post of all your pink flowers You have some beautiful ones!
Hi Cheryl, still plenty of colour but dwindling with the colder weather. Campanula cespitosa.

( photo / image / picture from Philip Nulty's Garden ) ---------------------------------------------------- Hi Deanna, now that's a good idea,..the post for Breast Cancer Awareness Month,..in the form of a photo story,..ok i will work on that. An older picture. ( photo / image / picture from Philip Nulty's Garden ) ---------------------------------------------------- Hi SongofJoy57, it was a short tour,..but glad you liked it.

Lovely blooms, Phillip. I like the combination of purple and pink sweetpeas. I haven't had them in my garden for a long time. Hard to believe Fall begins tomorrow. Hope we have an nice long Indian Summer.
Hi Gail, ah it starts for you tomorrow!,..for us it started on the 1st of August,..it ends on the 31st of October. I was out collecting Sweet Pea seeds today,..not all of the pods are ready for picking,..but i managed enough for a crop next year,..i do hope to get more pods as they enlarge,..the seeds i got for the present blooms were exceptionally good,..lots of colours and very tall plants,..i am 5ft 9ins,..you can see the Sweet Pea are heads above me. Seed collecting. ( photo / image / picture from Philip Nulty's Garden ) I had a surprise this morning,..some of my Poppy were in bloom,.."Papaver rhoeas",'Mother Of Pearl'.

Hi Cayuga Morning, that Hydrangea,..is "Hydrangea macrophylla",Bigleaf,Mophead,..,..the same as yours except yours is blue,..its all down to the ph of the soil,..if you have Aluminum in your soil then you will most likely have blue Hydrangea,..if none then it will be pink,..at present i have a Hydrangea grown from a cutting which i am trying to change to blue from pink,..i may not be successful for a long period as its in the garden itself,..were it in a container then i could prolong the colour blue,..but i want a blue one,lol. This is the cutting,..there are two flowers underleaf. The Hydrangea cutting.

Gaillardia pulchella,'Indian Blanket Flower,or Firewheel. ( photo / image / picture from Philip Nulty's Garden ) ( photo / image / picture from Philip Nulty's Garden ) I managed to take home seeds from Utah,USA,..i think these will fully bloom before the really cold weather. ....................................................

Philip-- Hydrangea cutting looks very healthy. good luck with the blue. Ironic that I am wishing for pink & you are wishing for blue!
Lol,..there you have gardeners,..we always want the other colour,..but as i mentioned,..its far easier for me to change one from pink to blue than the reverse.
