Man I thought that those flowers that I had posted a week or so back were the last of them, but my little garden had a couple of surprises left in store. We also harvested our Cannas and elephant ears and were very pleased at the yield. Next year will be quite colorful at the Gante house.

Some Firery Mums doing their thing.

These will be dried and will be next years elephant ears.

If you look closely at this picture, you can see the 5 or 6 origonal Cannas rhizomes that I planted in the spring time. They are the onesa that are dark brown. All the rhizomes that are white or light colored are this years growth. Each of these peices can still be divided further, for even more flowers in the coming year. Guess they found a good place to live ;)

This is some Zebra grass that has actually had a school bus drive over it ( don't ask! ) and still has managed to thrive. So I call it New York Zebra grass!

Stephie headin inside to warm up by the fire.
