Debbie Surdam’s mums in Hoosick, New York |
Another year of Bloom Day posts comes to an end, but not without some late season drama! From deep purples and autumn oranges to muted pinks and a Blood Moon, this might be my favorite month of all. What’s blooming where you are?

A few cheerful white cosmos keep on going; the purple ones have gone by. |
 |
One last hollyhock near that crazy grass that has completely taken over the corner by the fence. |
 |
My first attempt at dahlias, with a pot of alyssum (?), petunia, and lantana. I guess I’d better dig them up soon . . . |
 |
I planted coleus as a stop-gap measure in this new bed; I like it so much, I think I’ll do it again next year.
