Garden Pic Wednesday: Fall Zinnia's!

I spotted another new Amy Canary melon today! The vines seem to be so much more productive now, then earlier this spring! Also, as this time of year, insect problems can be less. My remaining Miracle-Gro had turned to blue water, so I used it up  giving all my flowers, containers & garden a "fall feed." That helps all the bulb flowers, day lilies, regular lilies iris, hydrangeas and so on perform better in spring. (Fortunately, the Miracle-gro is in a plastic liner inside it's box.) I also planted my remaining Atlas carrot seeds in a patio container today. Park Seed had a free-shipping special over Labor Day Weekend, so I ordered some seed. The majority is for next spring, but I got some beets and Romaine lettuce for right now. It's already shipped. I should be able to plant it next week!
