Morning Glories and Mourning Another Summer Gone

 

Just wanted to share the last of my summer flowers and the last bit of summer beauty .....we are already decorating for Halloween but the sweet climbing purple Morning Glories are in full bloom every morning to greet me when I walk over to the little pink studio.    This first photo was so rustic and the colors so vivid that it would be a shame to not share them all with you !

They've survived our 113 degree weather all summer and the big grasshoppers that came to munch them away....I love the tenacity of vintage flowers.   I planted so many of the beautiful blue saucer size Glories but never had even one bloom....these purple just took over !    They really have dressed up the studio and it's been lovely as I can see them through the window when I am sitting at my computer....a gentle reminder that our "glorious summer" is almost gone.
