My studio cottage is filled with blooms! Love my Thanksgiving cactus and my Christmas cactus is just starting to bud.

This rose looked so perfect I had to take a photo for painting reference. This is Peace rose.

Looks what’s blooming in my studio cottage. My Salmon pink thanksgiving cactus. All of the ones I kept in the studio are filled with blooms as well as the ones I had outside for the summer. My ones in the house have only a few. So next summer all of my thanksgiving and Christmas cactus will be put outside. The bright light they get seems to trigger more blooms. Even the one I had in the greenhouse is full with blooms and it got HOT in there this summer!

My garden helpers. Organic pest control at its best. They get the extra protein from eating bugs and grubs while leaving behind something the plants love. Win, win!

I brought some geraniums in to the studio cottage to paint. This pot will be tucked into the basement to overwinter once the weather turns freezing.
Do you overwinter your geraniums or do you just replace them each year?

These trees are all wild dogwoods within a few yards from each other around my hose and they are all such different colors. The oaks are starting to turn golden so quite the color fest in White Pines.

It was a lovely 40 degrees this morning so I took a little garden walk around the house with my coffee. Still some things blooming like this Zepherine Drouhn rose. She needs a bit of a prune before winter hits but I will pick a day I can video it for you and you can see how I will train t to climb along my porch facia.

This was from early Summer. I have only a few hummers sticking around now. All the others headed for warmer weather. I miss the flurry of activity on my back deck but I know they shall return.

Its a sweet pea kinda day. I thought these woulda all be toast after our freezing temps but not only did they make it they have thrived in the cooler temps of Fall. They have put on new robust growth. It didn’t hurt that I gave them a big shot of liquid fish fertilizer. I just love all the colors I got from @sweetpeagardens
I think I spotted some new ones on her site I need to try!
