You're garden looks pretty! Being in florida... it's going to be hot for a while so we won't be thinking about fall for a very long time. I can't wait though, my herbs hate this heat!
@artbee: I'm in FL, too, and I've just let my herbs die. It's been to frickin hot to keep them going. I'll just replant in a month or so.
As it gets cooler, i'll probably bring my herbs in as they are in a container. We have planted tomatoes, chili's, etc and will just let it go. We have planted mums and sweet potatoe vines for the fall in our backyard.
The rosemary is supposed to be cold resistant, so we'll see how it does. It'll be an interesting fight to see what grows more, the rosemary or the black-eyed susans
I spent this last weekend pullling the gigantic weeds out of my new front yard garden. And by gigantic I mean at least 3 feet long! I was hoping to spend Labor Day Weekend planting mums and some bulbs for spring, but Hurricane Earl might put a damper on those plans. :(
I love those black eyed susans. As the offical state flower of Maryland I feel like its almost obligatory that I put some in the yard!
@kate6214:Ha - so true! They're just such happy flowers. Good luck with the planting this weekend!
I need to weed weed and weed! The previous owners let the garden go to crap so there are all sorts of invasive weeds that we've been battling since the spring. I'd love to mulch before the winter sets in as well, and I have to cut back our herbs {they're in the ground so stay out all year} and our other perennials. Not to mention plant more bulbs for the spring! I love my spring bulbs, they always make me smile.
Oh boy, I have a lot on my plate as far as gardens go this fall.
I am going to be furiously weeding the new raised beds I put in this spring, as well as tearing up 90% of the old front garden, then furiously weeding the remaining 10%.
I've already mulched our large pocket gardens which is a good thing because they are HUGE.
I also have to bring up some bulbs for the winter(dahlias), plant some new ones to 'rest' (tulips) through the cold months, and If I get really really ambitious I will be building a series of raised vegetable plots.. but we'll have to wait and see how everything else goes, haha.
You guys did a great job, I have to admit I have been putting the weeding & mulching off since it is so labor intensive.

My hubby and I are so proud! We finally got time to work on our front garden, weeding, mulching, planting some nice fall flowers and adding a planter to start growing some rosemary plants, plus some black-eyed Susans (my name is susan, I like the pun:)
We meant to do something like this in the spring, but after tax season my husband is too zonked to do it and I'm heading into finals so I'm too busy to do it. I'm so proud of us actually getting it done, even if it's prepping for fall, not spring and summer
So what are you doing for your gardens as summer winds down and fall begins??
