October 2011 Blooms

 Here's some of what's blooming in mid-October:

Morning Glory

Lespedeza thunbergii 'Gibraltar'

I planted the bush clover (Lespedeza) last fall on a whim.  It really took off this year, growing about 4ft high.  It is a little spindly, but I think it will fill out over the next few years.  I love all the little magenta flowers it has produced this year.
