How are your gardens in November?
In my garden tehre are still some flowers in Bloom.
Dahlias and nusturtia, for example :)
All of ours seem OK. I got some in, a while back. The sun's been out, ever since. :P
The Hosta's died-back, though.
my anemones are blooming?
Rosemary and campanula in bloom here, everything else is dying-off for winter.
I removed my morning glories yesterday. :'(
Concrete growing well
My garden is still quite green - and will be green in December still!
We still haven't had a frost - there is a rainbow of colour still out there! Our nasturtiums are still flowering; a lovely splash of orange-yellow. I also have red crocosmia, lilac hebes and a pink rose in bloom out there. The bay tree (it's huge - about 15ft tall!) is flowering (tiny cream flowers), the campanula still has a couple of blue flowers and the ericas are very purple.
I have a suspicion the first frost will zap the lot! :-\
Our Campanulas are even attracting bees!
Some daffodils are up 4" already.
It's all very odd. It's like a spring day, here.
Set to change at the end of the week, though, apparently.

It changed here :'(
It's a bit grimbly (as they say, up here) today.
The birds are all in, fattening themselves up. :)
Still mild here.
Nastursiams (sp) are still flowering despite two days of frost earlier this week :)
My anemones are looking lovely and my violas
But something has been digging in my pots. Thrown slate everywhere and made a right mess
Foxes having a forage?
Magpies?
Rats?

Plenty of them around here, living near the Canal :(
First hard frost, this morning. :(
Could be rats, but I think a bird might be more likely
November is near again.
We have't had an air frost here yet, so we still have leaves on the fig tree, roses on the climbing rose, penstemons in flower... and the primulas are in full bloom! It was 17c a couple of days ago!!
We live in a small close where the gardens are protected by woods at the rear and fog in the river valley on old mornings (we're 30 yards from the riverbank... luckily about 15ft higher and it's tidal here so it never floods us out), so our microclimate lets us grow Mediterranean plants - Figs, peaches, palm trees, aloes, etc. This road looks like unless there's a frost on the ground. And we've been here nearly 5 years and never had snow!
Now it is December.
Well spotted ;D
