Pretties

I haven’t had any photos here lately, so here are some sprightly double impatiens. I don’t buy lots of annuals, but for the last couple of years Krogers (that’s a grocery chain for anyone reading this in England) has been selling a limited number of plants which they get straight from the growers. There’s not always a great choice, but they cost a third of what the nursery charges and I picked up a few, including these, which are a bright splash of color in the fall garden.

I did a little garden clean-up yesterday, put away my tools and closed the garage door—right on two of my fingers. They are a deep blue color today, and typing is a little problematic. Yesterday morning, for the first time ever, I locked the keys in the car. Luckily I was only at the library and Ernie was able to bring the spare set. I think I need to take it easy for the rest of the week.
