Fall Fade

Temps dipped to 28 degrees last night. My son had given me the heads up about a possible frost; this forced a plant save. A few were still enjoying the benefits of the great outdoors.

Sometime ago, I posted about Dipladenia (combined here with Sweet Potato Vine), a new variety that came highly recommended by my artistic gardening mentor. He told me it does fairly well in wintering over indoors. We'll see!

Early morning photos switch genres and return to "inside out".... well, that is, until I concede to frigidity by putting away my sandals and pulling out some warm clothing.....

Of course, I'll do this begrudgingly, as I dream of warm, sunny, sandy, surf-y beaches... and as the fall fade continues.
