End of a Zinnia Era.......


The zinnias will be cleared from the garden today. They have given me many photos throughout the summer.  I will probably have one last bouquet from them but they are really spent.  It will be very cold but the job will need to be done. I will probably plant another batch again next year in the very same area.  I will look over the seed and see if I can collect some before I clear it . It feels cold enough for it to snow today.  It is going to be close to a hard freeze tonight.

It is slightly warmer here today and rain is coming all day Sat.
John has collected a lot of moon flower seeds and pulled up the vines now.
