My mums have gone crazy. They are pretty but so tall they fall over when watered.
This is last years mantle display. I'll show this years some time soon. I have been working on some décor around here. Inside and out. I like for our porch to be decorated and need to get a couple nice plants to complete it. Maybe a pumpkin or two. I never make Jack-o-lanterns, that way the pumpkins can be for Halloween and Thanksgiving.
There are many festivals going on at this time of year. We have the Earth Day Festival in the little town south of here. Also you know Horton's is having their Autumn Market this weekend. That is where I am going today. Got to look around. Might get my plants there today.
Hope all of you have a wonderful, enjoyable weekend. XO
I'm going to Horton's tomorrow. Looking forward to taking a break!
ReplyDeleteCindy girl, I am going to look for you there. :):) I know what you mean by a break..me too. xoxo,Susie
DeleteHave fun at Horton's and take lots of photos.
ReplyDeleteI went today for the phones...cause the market actually is tomorrow. :):) xoxo,Susie
DeleteI like pumpkins around for Thanksgiving too. They last just about forever if you don't cut into them. Hope you enjoy your day at Horton's.
ReplyDeleteI wish all of you ladies out there could go to Horton's also. xoxo,Susie
DeleteI don't do Halloween either. I do the whole FALL thing to keep from having to do two different holidays. I sure I wish I were going to Horton's.
ReplyDeleteTruly Halloween is almost going over board...that's so the decoration company can sell stuff. I find Halloween too ghouly and garish. There's ahouse in the next town north...they go all out for Halloween and it's almost Christmas before they take that junk down. Yuck.LOL Oh I know, I am bad. LOL... I do the seasons when it comes to decorating...and maybe a little Christmas mixed in the winter theme. Blessings, xoxo,Susie
DeleteYour mums are huge !
ReplyDeleteI love all the decorations this time of the year, can't wait to see the rest of yours.
Beautiful Autumn days to you sweet friend.

Jo, I really love my friendship with you...you are so very kind. Blessings for a wonderful weekend. xoxo,Susie
DeleteGorgeous mums Susie! Very nice fall decor.
ReplyDeleteHi Beth, You know some times I will re-work some thing over and over....making myself nuts. LOL. Hope you are good today I am thinking of you so much. xoxo,Susie
DeleteTo his the season for fairs and festivals. I just love fall and fall decorating. Have a great weekend
ReplyDeleteThank you Missy, I wish you the same. My feet are not good enough to walk through the Earth fest. I will miss being with my daughters on Saturday...and can't go Sunday afternoon with my Teddy. Blessings, xoxo,Susie
DeleteGreat Autumn photos!!

Hugs,
Deb

ReplyDeletesmiles, bee
xooxoxxoxo
Bee, I know it has to be a different kind of fall there. I know you love just about everyday ...even if it rains , you seem to find some thing relaxing or fun to do. xoxo,Susie
DeleteEvery year I say I'm going to plant mums ~ maybe next year ... if I remember!
ReplyDeleteBless your heart Mel...you'll have to squeeze in a bit of time for one mum.:):) xoxo,Susie
DeleteI thank you for nice comments on my blog. Yup it is Fall. Northern New England is at it's peak. There are a few yellow leaves around here but that's it. In a few weeks I'll go to the Mt. Auburn Cemetery (Google it) It is one spectacular place especially in the fall.
ReplyDeleteI went on a bus trip through 12 states in Oct. once...I can tell there were plenty of fall foliage in Penn. We are just getting a bit of color on our trees. Blessings for a great weekend, xoxo,Susie
DeleteOur mums are doing absolutely nothing! I think they probably didn't make it through the colder than usual winter we had. xo Nellie
ReplyDeleteNellie, My neighbor reads the farmer's almanac and he says we are to have two more winter's just like last winter. I truly hope not. We lost some things through that rough time. So maybe you mum were effected. I have a yucca plant that never flowers. Hope you have a great weekend, xoxo,Susie
DeleteHave fun at Horton's I am sure you will!
ReplyDeleteAnn, I love going there. It's fun time in our town. The farmer's market will be going also.xoxo,Susie
DeleteWhat a big weekend with Hortons and earth day. We're taking our daughter and her dog there just to spend some time together.
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoy your fun time patty. I just can't do that much walking this weekend. xoxo, Susie
DeleteSusie, my Asters have done the same thing. They are so tall! I wanted to tie them up so they won't keep falling over, but they are totally covered in bees. Not willing to get in there. We are suppose to get some colder weather so maybe the bees will leave. Have a fun weekend!
ReplyDeletehugs,
Jann
Jann, I let the bees have the flowers, especially the sedum. I am thinking of putting some kind of fencing around the mums to help hold them up next year. I cut them back in late winter. I hope we have an early frost to kill of some of the bugs. xoxo,Susie
