So here it is in November, when normally there is No Color At All in the Minnesota landscape, but I have a bright pink First Love dianthus blooming its food head off in my front yard. (I am NOT complaining, mind you.)

And even after a few frosts and at least one hard freeze, I still have some containers providing color, as well as a few random blooms here and there. I can't bring myself to dump the containers if there's anything still blooming...I may well have to do so in the snow if this goes on much longer. (Still NOT complaining.)

Old gardeners never die. They are just pruned and repotted.
