October, you're moving too fast!

It's almost half of October and I'm still halfway gardening our plot. 

Now, in autumn I can only go there at weekends, and the visit of course depends on the weather. 

Last weekend kids stayed home so I went to the plot alone. 

Unfortunately, it was drizzling all day so I didn't do all that I had planned before. 

I uprooted the annuals that were left. I had hoped before to save a lot of seeds, but I didn't save as much as I wanted - all because of rain, seed-pots were rotting instead of drying. 

I planted some new and replanted some of my old perennials and I still have several shrubs to plant. 

I dug up all gladioli bulbs and several dahlia tubers - I still have about several dozen dahlias to dig up, but I'm waiting for the first frost to come. 

I picked some sunflowers and made the last bouquets with late marigolds.

 The orange ones are fantastic - and they're called Fantastic :)

I think it's the last bunch of dahlias. 

I'm going to miss these fancy dahlia bouquets I was making all summer.

If there weren't any asters planted in the garden, it would be sad and gloomy right now. 

I bought more shades of pink, purple and blue.
