We had our first hard freeze last night and this rose survived. It is up against the house so that does keep it warmer.
A few of these petunias are still alive. I noticed them when I walked by doing some chores in the front of the house. This variety was not as showy as the regular variety but it was nice to see some of them blooming all summer.
It is warm enough that I can get the pre-decorated tree out on the deck today. I got it all wired up to the railing to withstand the wind and snowstorms too.
I have all the ornaments wired to the tree so I never have to take them off of the tree. It is light weight enough for me to carry it out and then store it the rest of the year in my store room. All I need for this photo is some snow falling.
Another photo shows the spent rose, a rose in bloom, and a bud that probably will never open. It has been a busy day of doing different chores around the house. I spent time with my aquariums this morning and I will share that story tomorrow. There are sometimes snags in the process that makes life a challenge and require problem solving.
Thanks for checking in today.
