Over the past couple of days, I have gotten a great deal done on my fall project list! I spent most of this afternoon dividing and conquering (so to speak). I transplanted and divided some autumn ferns for my front porch bed. I went from 5 to 11 total in this bed and I think they will fill in nicely:

I also divided some daylilies and the green eyed susans and put some in the big front bed by the street. Not much to see now, but hopefully will add some great color in the spring!

This is what the front yard looks like from the street as of today:

I'll be so sad when the first frost gets all that sweet potato vine...it will look so naked!

I also did a lot of clean up and filled up a few landscape trash bags as well as overflow in my wheelbarrow:

I am so enjoying this time of year! There is not as much to be done in the garden it seems and what is to be done is very enjoyable. Also, the trumpet tree is just FABULOUS!!!!!!!!

Also looking forward to my camelia sasanqua blooming this winter. It has SO many buds:

My next task at hand will be to pull out whats left of the tomato and pepper plants and plant the 2nd veggie bed for fall. :)
