When I got out of the car I spotted the only bit of fall color, that little yellow tree.
NOW: Back home, the lavender has done very well this summer, for its first year!
BEFORE: Soon after repotting, June 30.
ALSO BEFORE: Aug. 24
...and here are all those basil leaves that I won't be picking...as I'm letting it go to seed. I wonder if the seeds might be viable for spring planting. I have much more interest in the spring than I do now, for plants at least.

Do you think that's true?

We only have a few pretty colorful trees here too. Some leaves have turned brown and fallen already, maybe due to the drought. I am glad your lavender is doing well. Take care, have a great day and a happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteSo glad to hear from you each day Eileen. Yes, the weatherman has said we won't have much color this fall. It's ok, I've memories of beautiful ones!
DeleteLovely fall colour.
ReplyDeleteThanks William. I'm also glad to see your comments each day!
DeleteWe were noticing last night the first signs of color on a mountain across the valley--on one side the trees look kind of tarnished--a precursor to fall color.
ReplyDeleteAh, the higher elevations will see color before places like the little lake where I walk. Black Mountain is in the 2400 foot range.
DeleteYou are a tad bit ahead of NE Oklahoma for fall color though I can tell that the trees are thinking about changing color.
ReplyDeleteAre you in a plains area, or some hills, or some mountains? I've never visited NE Oklahoma!
DeleteIt is fast-approaching now.
ReplyDeleteAh, spoken like a true Canadian! So glad you'll be sharing some of your scenes when they come about.
