It finally happened. We got a frost hard enough to do in the annuals. For me, this is the official end of summer. This solitary clematis bloom surprised me. The rest of the flowers look more like this.

If you read my summer posts, you know that we were up to our eyeballs in little orange tomatoes.

This is a busy time of year for gardeners. Time to stop admiring the garden and get out and work in it. I've learned to split the chores of cutting back perennials and shrubs between fall and spring. I used to save all of it for spring, and them kick myself in April when I was overwhelmed with everything I had to do.
