Summer's End Photos

Summer is ending.
Soon Autumn will be here. The leaves will fall from the trees. The last of the crops will be ready for harvest. Herbs will be gathered and dried.

Right now, The Kingdom of Dragonia (my micronation) is bursting forth in blooms. The Russian sage is beautiful with it's purple flowers.

The Spearmint is in bloom as well. The white flowers are so beautiful next to the purple.

And of course the "dwarf catnip." It sure is tall to be a dwarf, but the purple flowers are gorgeous.

Then there is the sage. It's cooking sage and I cannot remember what type.

Then there are the roses, pink and white, and the crepe myrtles, lavender and red/pink.

Of course, then there is the all important gourd crop. The gourds are important for the Dragonian sport, Gourd Ball!

The garden is starting to die, but here are a few pictures of it as well.
