A bee visiting my Mexican sunflower ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒป

With the last week of October here, I know these little garden visitors will be getting harder to spot soon. Iโ€™ll enjoy every last one I get to see before spring brings them back. ๐Ÿ’›

Good morning! โ˜€๏ธ๐ŸŒผ These okra flowers still brighten my mornings when I head out into the garden. Earlier this spring, I kept missing them, so now I love catching them in bloom. Such a pretty little part of the garden that Iโ€™m thankful to still enjoy. ๐Ÿ’›

Still have a few plants with peppers and tomatoes. Anyone else still harvesting from their garden? ๐ŸŒฑ

Still getting snap pea flowers in the garden! ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š

Did you know snap peas can handle a light frost? They usually can tolerate temperatures down to around 28ยฐF, so they can keep growing when some of your summer plants are calling it quits.

A little cold weather doesn't always mean the garden is done!

A little blue to brighten up these fall days. ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ‚

I wasnโ€™t expecting to still be enjoying so many little things in the garden this late in the season. ๐Ÿ

My Black Hungarian peppers found a way to keep growing! ๐ŸŒถ๏ธโค๏ธ

This was an extra plant I tucked into the garden bed and one of our storms knocked it over without me even noticing.

It kept growing along the ground and now we have surprise peppers! ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜๐ŸŒถ๏ธ

My begonias are still so full and covered in little pink flowers. ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ’—

Iโ€™m enjoying these blooms while theyโ€™re still going strong.

A little color like this makes it hard to believe weโ€™re so far into fall!

Good morning! ๐Ÿ‚

Heading out to do a little yard cleanup today. My celosia is still looking good but my pepper plants started dropping leaves this week, so I brought a bunch inside to overwinter.

I decided to try it with a few eggplants, too. I read that you can cut them back just like pepper plants, so weโ€™ll see how it goes! ๐ŸŒถ๏ธ๐Ÿ†

Has anyone tried overwintering eggplants before?
