Last Minute Blooms in the Herb Garden!

Borage is Still a Strong Bloomer in the Garden

An Orange Calendula Still Blooms On

So Do the Calendulas with Yellow or Brown Centers

The 'Vanilla' Marigolds Have Done Well Only in This Spot

A Bee Still Finding the 'Fairy' Rose Flowers

The Holly Ready for the Holidays

A Baby Sunflower

The 'Double White' Feverfew Reblooming

And The Glorious Pineapple Sage!  One of the Best Seasons Yet!

I think I want to say with this post if you pick the right herbal flowers, you will have bees and beneficial insects all season long.  It is 76 degrees as I sit here posting!  Still picking raspberries and mowed the grass for the last time today.  Have been busy cutting and preserving the harvest.  Getting tender herbs into containers.  Am working on an herbal vinegar post for you.  Hopefully will get it posted in the next couple of days.  The Mid-Atlantic states are really going to be cool this weekend (maybe even snow flurries!) and we will probably have our first killing frost here in the 'Burgh.  Some of our friends and neighbors have already had a frost.  We have been lucky.  So some of the flowers you see above will be gone by next week.  I'm going to make this short so I can go back to work on the herbal vinegar post.  Hope you have had a great day!  It was stellar here albeit windy!  Talk to you later!
