Cooler Nights are coming

 

The temperature is on a dip spree in night , this indication of winter approaching was much awaited  for the garden after a tormented summer which we have seen this year .  

The Autumn garden is a mix bag of blooms and harvest. We always spent more hours  in the Garden in Autumn compared to whole year with respect to preparing garden for spring. 

Night Jasmine or Parizad plant choose the Autumn for flowering , The night Jasmine flower has fragrance that can make whole garden smells like perfume. 

                                                                               

                                                          

                            Bougainvilleas are blooming prolifically before they go dormant in winter. 

                                                                              

       Adeniums which are summer bloomers are unexpectedly   blooming more  in Autumn this year 

                                                                           

                                                                        

                                  It was after almost 5 years there is a bloom on Aloe Vera plant.  

                                                                                     

                                                                                 

Garden Affair : Pink Autumn

 Autumn weather brings cool breeze and the Garden prepares for welcoming winter , since we have mild winter the preparation for spring blooms is done in the Autumn till early winter.
