Here in the Mid-Atlantic USA (USDA zone 7) on the DC-MD border, we are experiencing an unusually cold November, much like the rest of the US. Freezing night temps have zapped all my summer annuals and tender perennials.
My cool season annuals are hanging in. The snapdragons are actually looking decent after being in the garden since March and I have a white aster that has weeded itself about the place.
Elsewhere in my garden, I have blooming:
- Mums
- Calendula
- Bacopa
- Pansies/Viola
- Sweet Alyssum
and more...

The temperatures are plummeting here in the northeast as well and the first frost did in a lot of the blooms, but some of the foliage and blooms are persistently holding on. Your annuals are looking good. It is amazing how some of them actually hold on longer than the perennials, even with the frost! Happy Bloom Day and happy autumn!
ReplyDeleteMy snapdragons were looking good too. I didn't know that they enjoyed the cold.
