A huge sunflower grew well over twelve feet in the garden. It was amazing

 Echinacea was the absolute best this year so big, so healthy truly amazing. I harvested a bunch of seed of the plants this fall.  

 I added several other colour of Echinacea this year so lets hope it winter wells.

So many new changes in the garden over the fall. I can't wait to see how everything makes it over the winter.

 I added rocks to the existing above ground pond it gives it a nice finish.

Our new pond is quite shallow so it is safe for our grandson to visit. I am hoping it has a natural look to it next year.

 The scenery is sure something special, the colours, the moist air the dips in temperature. The dramatic weather moods. The gardens are tired and ready for a rest. The garden ornaments are put away until Spring. Soon I will cut down plants. And, do we have pine needles.

 Our summer here on the farm has gone by so fast it was a good, hot, intense heat summer. We had quite a few weddings and new people dropping in. We have done changes to the garden we have joined the orchard into the main garden so when walking around you can do a complete circle. We have added a new pond quite shallow just a nice water feature I am hoping next year it looks natural like it has always just been there. I planted different mints around it, blueberries, grasses. It does have some flowers for now but I may move those next year as I want a natural look, I am not sure I can pull it off just yet. The old pond the above ground I put in the summer of 2014 I surrounded that with some lovely rock it put a nice finish to it.

We built a new drying shed this was not in the plan but with the wind and weather wrecking the old one we had no choice.

 The last of the lavender here it is drying out on the kitchen table waiting to be made into wreaths.

 Wreath making it is amazing how much lavender goes into one wreath.
