Every Blooming THing, Early October 2018


The trees are starting to change color around here in northeast Illinois.  The Japanese lilac trees have the lime green leaves but are falling off rapidly now.  The honeylocusts are their brilliant fall yellow, but unfortunately, the leaves don't stay on long.

I still have the white daisy like plants, each with hundreds of small blooms, are still blooming and dangerous if you get up close to them because of the bees and other stingers hanging around them.  The sedum all have their flower tops in glorious shades of red.

And, the several hundred mum plants in the yard (most of them yellow) are starting to bloom.

The hostas are still around.

My burning bushes are just starting to turn to their reds, but others in the neighborhood are already brilliant.  I must have "slow" burning bushes.
