What's Blooming

Now that the air has turned a little colder (emphasis on little), a few more flowers are starting to bloom!

My white asters...

The chrysanthemums...

Orange
And red
And one that has probably been in bloom awhile now, but I didn't notice it tucked in amongst my other plants. This is a Malva Zebrina, and it is an annual that reseeded itself. I haven't seen it for two years, so I was pleasantly surprised to see it again.

The flowers are so small!
 Here's the real tragedy: they were all over the flower bed where I found this one. I had already yanked out all the others, though, thinking they were weeds. There is a certain weed that has very similar leaves, in my defense. So I was a little bummed that I had thinned future volunteers. Hm, maybe I just need to plant something else!

Hope you have a great week!
