There is no season such delight can bring
As summer, autumn, winter and the spring.
~William Browne

And what is your favorite season? I do like the variety of the seasons. And today, can not tell you my favorite. Each and every one has a place, right? :)

Daylilies, well there ya go, they tolerate all seasons. Daylilies do well here in Zone 7. Here it is, mid September and there are several rebloomers showing their stuff.

Now is a good time to purchase and plant daylilies. Three - four weeks prior to the first frost is a right time for fall planting. Daylilies will have time to get established prior to frost. So .... get on out there. Make a new flower bed, add to an existing flower bed or share with a friend. Daylilies make a great perennial. Check 'em out at Oakville Farm.

Hope you have a good day. Until next time, Happy Gardening.

Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower. ~Albert Camus

Yes, it is almost Autumn, September 23, 2011, I believe. Autumn is my favorite time of year. I so like the colors ... yellow, brown, orange, red. And the holidays ... Halloween, Veteran's Day, Thanksgiving. And events ... our NC State Fair, local art/craft events, Farmer's Markets.

Our State Fair, an agricultural fair, comes at the best time of the year, during the month of October, usually accompanied by cool days/nights, light rain showers. The coolness seems to make the animals a little perkier/more active. And all the 4-H events! Cows, goats, sheep, pigs, chickens, ducks, horses and more. And the exhibits! Gourds, cake decorating, dressmaking, watermelon, apples, canning, baking and more. And entertainment! Clogging, fireworks, midway rides, exhibits, singing, folk dancing, Village of Yesteryear and more. Then the food ... OMG, the food. Funnel cakes, sausage w/ onions & peppers, fresh bar be cue sandwiches, cotton candy, corn on the cob, taffy, candied apples and so much more. Oh WOW, such fun. Get your family and friends together, head over to the fair for a fun filled day. See ya there!!! Check it out...NC State Fair, located at our state capital, Raleigh, NC
