PINK IN THE FALL

I love fall and I love the color pink in all it's variations.  I still have a few 'pinkish' flowers blooming. 

Watermelon crepe myrtle is a beautiful reddish pink.

Sedum Autumn Joy goes through lots of beautiful shades of pink  before settling on a rusty red.

Neon sedum is just that--a gorgeous neon pink.

My Four-O-Clocks have several different shades of pink-beautiful!

The Four-O-Clocks have been really lush and beautiful this year-love the smell.


My lone Cleome plant.  Came up in the front of this bed-not the best place but I left it.  Need to collect seed and plant in a better place next year.

Love the color of this Rose of Sharon bush.

Have just a few Echinacea (coneflowers) blooming.  The hot dry months of July and August slowed things down as I don't water from our well.

Bev, they are all beautiful shades of pink.

My sedum may be Autumn Joy; it looks exactly like yours.

I didn't know 4 0'Clocks were fragrant. I need to check mine.
