Fall has Arrived

After some weird yet beautiful weather, I was on the beach at the cottage on Thanksgiving - Fall has arrived.

Last night it went down to about 5 degrees celcius. Boo.

So today, I am bringing the perennials off the balcony into the apartment for the dreaded winter. I am hoping that my first attempt at winterization works. I have two beautiful plants that I am bringing in, my Dipladenia and my Bressingham Purple. I have trimmed them all down, and have done my research. They were budget buys, so if I lose them, I won't be out in a monetary way, but in a beauty way.

I have them both tagged in my journal, so if it doesn't work this year, I'll try again next year. I was so impressed by both, and how well they did on my balcony that I would love to have them on my balcony or future yard - year after year.

Fingers crossed, and wish me luck!

Still Summer in Toronto?

Today, October 5th, 2007 still feels like summer. Today we hit a high of 25 and I took a wonderful walk to enjoy the fall colours.

The mums are not happy with the heat, I think they prefer it a bit cooler, but I am not really complaining!

Happy Thanksgiving!
