Still picking gorgeous dahlias and beautiful colored caladium leaves for indoors. Also picked 2 figs today -mmm delicious. There are still a few peppers ripening. I tried the new sweet pepper Merlot in my 'alcoholic' garden -all the plants have the name of alcohol!!: Caladium brandywine, Viburnum Brandywine, Atropurpurea Burgundy Glow, Deutzia, Chardonnay Pearl, Colocasia Mojita among many others. I also have a white garden, an Asian garden, a South Carolina Garden, a rock garden and so on. Having fun with the garden means spending more time there and it is amazing how other people help you look for plants or suggest them, or even pass along plants that they know will fit into a theme. It is a great talking piece too for a party.
What ideas do you have for garden areas or themes?

Presentation
I will be at the Greenville SC Women's Garden Club on Wednesday October 3rd.
Our next presentation will be at the Hayden Center for the Iris Garden Club. This will be on 'Fall for Fall Bulbs' on Thusrday Oct 11th. It is always fun to go on the road with a presentation and meet other keen gardeners and those just starting out. We all have so many tips and ideas to share. It is a great way to find out more about your local growing area as well as more general hints on varieties and tried and tested ideas and experience. Everyone has some knowledge to share or some question to ask.
After this it will be Columbia on November 13 but more on that one later -though you can always ask for more information any time -that will be open to the public. Call 1-800-999-0567, email info@marlborobulb.com or ask in the comment section for more information, for a catalog or if you would like presentation at your function or garden club.
