September is always a wild month with special orders and big events most days of the week. My heirloom mums all died in August when we had a week of rain, so I relied on my dahlias for the heavy lifting. With that massive crop failure, I was missing a lot of my fall colors which is my favorite palette… next year that bed will become a mulchy swamp instead of attempting to be a swampy garden bed! I’ll put a few deer resistant willows there and see what happens.
