flowers are still hanging on

My hardy petunias are still hanging on. They've made it through a few frosts. The hummingbird feeder had its spot right in the middle of this pot of flowers. Hummingbirds like red and trumpet-shaped flowers. Now that these little birds have migrated south for the winter, I've removed the feeder to clean it for their arrival in early to mid-April. These petunias look so pretty with the burning bush as its backdrop. Fall is going out in its blaze of color.

    1. They have put on quite a show for a long time. I look at them all the time from my kitchen window.

  2. Petunias are one of my favorite flowers. Yours are so pretty and cheerful. We're fortunate to have our Anna's hummingbirds all year.

    1. Petunias are such happy flowers and so easy to take care of. Lucky you to have year 'round hummingbirds.

  4. I always think that's a good sign when fall shows us all those magnificent colors.

    1. It's always appreciated, especially before Ohio's gray winter.
