In the garden, September 1

The trellis is covered with blooms. (click to enlarge pics)

The vine is called "Purple Bells"


the "clapper" is the actual blossom, and the leaves are heart-shaped.

WOW that is simply gorgeous!
And so serene. Beautiful setting for your lovely Budha.

Thank you! It's the view out my office window. I probably do more daydreaming than I should!

This is so pretty and welcoming. A lovely end of Summer display.

The temps dropped twenty degrees in less than 24 hours. We were sweltering before, but there is a *definite* chill in the air now--plus, rather than sunset at 9PM, it's already getting dark by seven. Winter is a-comin' in, as they say, like a freaken freight train. So I'll enjoy the posies while they last.

Beautiful, it looks like an extremely peaceful spot :)

It makes me smile, and take a deep breath. Thank you!

Gorgeous!

Thank you!

How very beautiful!!! I love the colours, they pop and they just made me smile straight away :D

It works a treat blocking the view of the neighbors' house, too! A much happier view. Thank you!

Hmmm, are the neighbours that hideous? LOL!

So beautiful! I am very jealous of your gardens.

Ah, they're little and wee, for the most part. Pocket gardens, for those without acreage. Thank you.

Lovely setting, very tranquil.
It must be nice to see those flowers in bloom when you look out your window. :)

It really is. I love to see the color change and the shadows shift as the sun moves down the garden. It's getting cooler though, and soon the vine will be bare and brown. Must soak in the sight while it's here.

That is a beautiful and relaxing sight; I could do with a few more of those myself! I didn't totally abdicate on my container garden this year, but it's definitely not as colorful as previous years. I've got some ideas for next year, though. If they come to fruition, I'll make sure to post them where you can see.

Green lady! Yeah, I know who she is, but she's very appropriate for a garden post, nu?

I hope you get joy and a sense of peace and contentment from your container garden next year. I'd love to see pictures!
