The Parsley Patch

Even though fall has arrived, the garden still flourishes in vibrant color. Our Autumnal garden was chosen as by HGTV as one of their Favorite Fall Gardens of 2004.

“The summer garden works intensively to produce herbs and flowers, and just when you think it can’t do another thing, the white flowers of chocolate Joe pyeweed burst forth and the seed heads on the corn-like sorghum mature. Crows gather with the ripe pumpkins and mums. The fragrance of waning foliage signals that it’s time to also harvest bottle gourds from the vines on the arbor, while fuzzy tails of red fountain grass wave in the breeze, beckoning you to come and sit awhile to revel in the exuberant sights and sounds of the season.”
