Do you miss the colors of summer? I sure do. I miss the purples, yellows, pinks, reds and blues and …
We’re having a couple of days of Indian Summer weather here and I so want to dig my hands in the dirt, pull a few weeds, snap off some dead blooms. But there are no weeds. *sniff*
Everything looks so blah. The lilies and irises still have some green leaves, but those just aren’t exciting. We’re having a housewarming party (yay!) the weekend before Thanksgiving and I need curb appeal! Aaahhh!
I’ve already decided I’ll get a couple of pumpkins. However, I don’t think we have any corn stalks left - the cows love that tasty treat. I’d love to buy some flowers, but I don’t want to break the budget or buy something that won’t make it through our cold, frosty nights.
What do you do to spruce up your curb appeal during autumn?

I know what you mean about this time of year. I do find it hard to motivate myself totidy up the garden.

Pumpkins are great color splashes, as long as the squirrels leave yours alone (see my post today if you want to find out what they did to mine!). We still have a few marigolds and other small things blooming here in Seattle. Our trailing rosemary is blooming with small blue blossoms on the retaining wall, that’s always nice to see as winter closes in. Hm, good luck, I don’t have a lot of ideas!
