I'm excited for the temperatures to drop in the next few weeks so I can do some fall planting. Asters are on the top of my list as far as new plants for the garden this season!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01215678221173950533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442329414502848033.post-47351366630941902382014-09-06T09:59:23.013-05:002014-09-06T09:59:23.013-05:00I didn't even think about the contrast between...I didn't even think about the contrast between the red used as a sign of pleasure and power in the Royal Gardens to the red poppies at the Tower to signify tragedy and devastation.

We are still weeks away from aster season.
