Happy Monday!

Visit Today's Flowers for a virtual bouquet to start your week in the best possible way!
I planted this light pink mini fuchsia plant at the end of the greenhouse season [read: half price sales] knowing it would thrive as the earth tilted toward August and September. Its been a beautiful addition and has just now come into its prime while the other annuals are suffering heat exhaustion.

Parasols twirling
Flowing scarves pink and breathless
September arrives

Very lovely indeed. The Hummingbirds love the fuchsia baskets I did in the spring. With lots and lots of water they managed to make it to this cool September day!

Hi Noni! Your fuchsia is very pretty! I love fuchsias but cannot keep them in my garden. I have a friend who has the most beautiful flowers all summer: she has what we call "green fingers".Thanks for your visit!

Fuchsia's are one of my favorites. My mom used to grow many hanging baskets, but I haven't given it a try yet. Very pretty photo.
