Garden Bloggers’ Bloom Day – October 2011

October 15, 2011 By Carol Michel 91 Comments

Welcome to Garden Bloggers’ Bloom Day for October 2011.

Here in my USDA Hardiness Zone 5b garden in central Indiana the first two weeks of October have been some of the best “summer” days we’ve had all year.

Out in the vegetable garden, it looks like summer with a volunteer petunia growing in a fallow bed where lettuce and radishes grew earlier in the spring.

The marigolds look as fresh as ever, unaware of the pending change in weather.

The zinnias have also never looked better this late in the season.

There’s no sign of powdery mildew on these zinnias, and no signs that they’ll slow down blooming for awhile.

I think both the marigolds and zinnias are doing so well because I sowed the seeds much later than in other years and we’ve not yet had any frost.

But though the garden looks summer-like if you look in a few places, elsewhere it is decidedly fall. The toad-lilies, the last new blooms every year are winding down.

This one is Tricyrtis ‘Imperial Banner’.

These asters, Symphyotrichum novae-angliae, a favorite passalong plant, are going strong.

I also have some named varieties of asters elsewhere in the garden, but these asters will always be my favorite because they came from my aunt who originally got them from my Dad.

Some of the trees also know it is fall. The honey locust tree has dropped almost all its leaves.

The fallen leaves nearly cover dianthus still sending out new shoots and blooms.

Silly flowers. Don’t they know that fall is here and someday, maybe next week, we will have a killing frost?

Once that frost happens, even the red maple, Acer rubrum, will have to get with the fall program and turn more than one leaf red.

That’s what’s blooming and changing in my garden here in mid-October. What’s going on in your garden? What’s blooming?

We would love to have you join in for Garden Bloggers’ Bloom Day. It’s easy to participate and all are invited!

Just post on your blog about what is blooming in your garden on the 15th of the month and leave a comment to tell us what you have waiting for us to see so we can pay you a virtual visit. Then leave your name and the url to your bloom day post in the Mr. Linky widget below so we’ll know where to find you.

    My outrage at a gardening magazine's suggestion that gardens are pretty much done in the fall inspired me to write a post proving them wrong. Actually it resulted in three posts and this is the second. Happy GBBD.

    I love your volunteer petunia and marigolds. I've never grown toad lilies before, probably because I don't have much shade.

    We've had summer like weather this fall, too. The cooler temps are here for the next several days, and by Tuesday evening, I see it could get down to 33. I'm so not ready, but that doesn't matter.

    Thanks for continuing to host bloom day.

    I have never seen Tricyrtis 'Imperial Banner'. It is a winner with that white variegation!

    What's blooming? Dahlias galore. And the most pleasant froth from my own "cheap" aster, native flat-topped aster.

    Thanks Carol!

    I guess one benefit from this crazy weather is that you've got some summer left early in the fall?! The sentimentality of your asters is touching. It's nice that we can have so many fond memories rekindled by a plant tucked away in our gardens. Happy GBBD, Carol!

I fell in love with zinnias all over again this year after my daughter picked out a "Veggie Tales" seed packet of Thumbelina zinnias and planted the seeds herself. Will definitely do that again this year, as it added so much late-season sunny bed out front!

When I was in Maine at the beginning of the week, it was in the 80s! The upside of the strangely warm weather is, as you point out, lots of late season blooms. -Jean

    Just set a new personal worst for finishing my Bloom Day post. Was out of town, but had chosen photos and wanted to get them out. I look forward to grazing posts from other Bloom Day participants.

    Happy GBBD and thanks for hosting! Zinnias are one of the few annuals we have in our garden – they are definitely a fall favorite here too!

    Carol,

    What wonderful contrasts in mid October – summer flowers still going strong coupled with your honey locust without any leaves. I love the picture of the single red leaf.

    There's lots of flowers hanging on over here too Carol as well as some surprising spring bloomers owing to the weird weather we've been having.

    My post went up on the 15th as usual, but I wasn't able to hop on over to add my link on the dot.

    Happily this was because I was visiting ArtistsGarden and I'm happy to report from first hand experience she had plenty of flowers blooming in her garden on Saturday 🙂

    I love the fall and wish it would stay longer, but unfortunately in the past few years it has changed from Summer to Winter and only given us a few short weeks of fall in the part of Georgia I live.
