I was never a big fan or ornamental kale, but seeing it all over Pinterest, blogs etc. I've come to like it.. <br />Luckily a neighbor watered my gardens all week: not a drop of rain until last night as we were landing at RDU amidst huge thunderstorms. Lots to do in the garden this weekend….<br />How is the sous-chef doing? I'll write you very soon, ok?Libby https://www.blogger.com/profile/11556491482494737313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-323849547147404211.post-74681383743371568742014-10-06T23:37:33.615-04:002014-10-06T23:37:33.615-04:00Well, I'm catching up on a week's worth of...Well, I'm catching up on a week's worth of reading and here I am viewing the most gorgeous autumnal container arrangement. What a fabulous composition of form and color! I love how the greens and purples are framed by the black urn. <br /><br />I had hoped for cooler weather where we live also, but Indian summer has arrived so for the next two weeks, we shall swelter before the true autumn weather sets in.

This year we are "going all out" and power washing the house too. It really needs it, this is Georgia after all. I have never seen so many bugs and spiders in my life...you should see the size of the spiders...they are scarrier than the snakes!lindaraxahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15721286284279902181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-323849547147404211.post-16025057124114579412014-10-05T11:20:50.920-04:002014-10-05T11:20:50.920-04:00I woke up late so I missed the am 30's but it&...I woke up late so I missed the am 30's but it's 48 now.

By the way, we used to use dilute bleach to remove algae from walks, with no apparent damage either to stone or plants. There are also commercial products for this; either might be quicker and less expensive then power washing.<br />--JimParnassushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08958901307538141468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-323849547147404211.post-75208424438021453272014-10-05T06:32:13.642-04:002014-10-05T06:32:13.642-04:00Your ornamental kale & cabbage are so pretty a...Your ornamental kale & cabbage are so pretty and you're smart to have placed them in planters. Past experience tells me bunnies will eat both of them. Snuggle close - it is 32 here this morning. Crazy, it will be 80 by Wednesday.
