Fall gardening

My yard is a big ol' mess, but I hope to get it cleaned up for fall over the next month or so. In the last week, strong winds have knocked down three huge limbs from my pecan tree, as well as another entire 12' tree.

I have lots of plants waiting to be put in the ground though. Hopefully they will thrive and add a little color to my yard. I have a huge Hibiscus, a huge Bouganvilla, and a Duranta.

We got these plants at the Wildseed Farms near Frederickburg. It was a wonderful day to go as it had just rained and the temperature was about 75 degrees. So nice. And they had fields and fields of zinnias growing.
