Happy Frostmas! The first hard frost marks the official end to the flower season.
The final weeks of clean up are here. It's "work in sweatshirts and overalls" season. There is still preparations to do for the spring before the ground is too hard.
Thankfully I remembered to collect some seed heads from the dahlias yesterday! I am starting to feel ready to tackle the dahlia patch now. The leaves are beginning to fall so we will soon have plenty of leaf litter to mulch our tubers and put them to bed.
