Well, we had a bit of a drizzle today, really didn't even wet the soil beneath the mulch, but provided some nice humidity for the garden. I got a couple of projects checked off my list...moved my blueberry bush to a much better spot...hopefully now it will actually produce for us. Also, divided a Sedum Autumn Joy and scattered the divisions around my front porch bed. Had to water my transplants with dish water, but I think it worked just fine.
Also, did some more clean up.
Some light weeding
and Cutting back of some fading bulb foliage
I think I will work on some more dividing this weekend.

For the first time here the weather has not gotten much above 80! It feels so wonderful and that fall breeze is in the air. The garden is doing great! Weeds have slowed and the leaves are falling. Everything is ready for my fall projects soon to be started. Colors of fall are starting to show as well:
Wild grape vine that grows here...I usually pull it out with a vengence, but I let it go a bit wild on my porch and I must say the fall "fruit" is very pretty!
Autumn Joy Sedums are in full bloom:
Miscanth
us looks loveley in the fall breeze!
And, best of all...the figs are finally starting to ripen! The drought delayed them a bit this year, but they are still nice and yummy:
HAPPY FALL!!!!!!!!!!
