Killing Frost

Yesterday morning we had our first killing frost. I managed, through dumb luck, to get photos of the nasturtiums in the moments when they were in the sun, but not yet thawed.




Once thawed, the leaves and flowers melted away into sad memories.

I am of two minds about the first frost. One, I am thrilled that the end of hayfever season is now in sight. Two, I am sad because now I have to make it through the winter with nothing blooming in my garden. It's a back and forth I go through every year....

Those are beautiful photos! Kudos to you.

Thank you Carole! I know what you mean. Time to hibernate with some good books and games soon.
