viburnum bracteatum Archives - The Obsessive Neurotic Gardener

Ignore what I wrote on Friday. There were no bulbs planted this weekend and I blame it on the following:

50% weather – we had a ton of rain late Friday into Saturday
25% familial obligations – soccer game, kids Oktoberfest events
15% smarts – maybe a bit too early for bulb planting here
10% wanting to soak in the autumn-ness – time spent smelling the ~~roses~~ grasses

In regards to that last one, I am typically not one to “enjoy the moment” when it comes to my garden. I am either looking towards the future when yet again moving or adding a new plant or hating on my current day plants that are underachieving.

But this weekend I reminded myself that fall is possibly the greatest time of year in the garden, yet it is oh so fleeting. A famous man once said “Better enjoy the crap out of it while is here.”

With that in mind, more autumn photos for your viewing pleasure.
