A little different down here than the usual glorious turning of the leaves that occurs further north, but still glorious. We had that record-breaking summer, hottest ever with extreme drought to go with it - and the distress caused the Crape Myrtles delay blooming until the rains came recently (still in drought, but the plants are happier). So gorgeous, choked with pink flowers.

What I love best about them is that they spread pink flowers all over everything.

This is Texas Lantana.

Brilliant red Turk's Cap is thick all over the place.

I really love this color, this is Orange Cosmos. Gorgeous.

This beauty sprouted up as a lone flower right in the middle of the path.
We think it's called Meadow Pink, but not sure.*[see comments - Pink Rain Lily] A couple of those little black specks are ants doing their business. It's all alone, so it must have been planted by a bird.
Looks lovely.
ReplyDeleteFall is my favorite time of the year without question. Very nice pictures!! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI had one of those pink flowers blooming in my beds too. It was a pink rain lily...looked exactly the same!
ReplyDeleteSure enough, I think it is a pink rain lily. Yours is also a single flower?
