A Few Blooms Sunday Oct 5, 2008

Well, going to see the Amish stores was a bust, they are buying their merchandise in China the same as all the other stores. But we did visit a store that sold bulk goods, baking goods, and candy mostly that was fun. Bought a few things there. There was a General Store that had lots of Amish fabric, I bought 3 yards. It was a nice day for a drive. I came home and planted bulbs and started cleaning up for the winter.

More Shades of Green

Autum Joy Sedum with bonnets

This is what my Sedum looked like this weekend after the snow. Autumn Joy Sedums are one of my favorite flowers mostly because the butterflies and bees love them, on a beautiful fall day they will be covered with butterflies and bees. An old friend who is no longer living gave me my first Sedums or Live Forevers as she called them over 30 years ago. The original plant is still in the original spot that I planted the first little cutting.
