I probably should have saved the gazania picture for today. Those flowers just won't open all the way without real sun, so it doesn't look any different. But the blossoms are a shade of red.
But several of the plants in the rock garden take on nice hues for fall. Of course the best is the Bloody Cranebill. I have ripped out a ton of that, but it does look great in the fall. It's just that I want a variety of plants. But the leggy sedum in the top left has also gotten very red.
I love the bronze Ajuga. It almost looks black. I'll probably move some of this out farther from the wall next year to see if it will tolerate more sun. I have lots.
And the Sedum Atlantis remains my favorite purchase of the year. The new sprouts come in very pink/red. It has spread quite a lot.
I mostly edited. I did a little work around the house. And Vacation from DMS is up to 9544 words. I'm still not sure it's going to work. That's a bit disconcerting. I may have to have a few test readers. I mean, I like it... but not everyone is as nerdy as I am.
