Fall is in the air...

I bought a mum the size of a shrub yesterday.  I was puttering around a local nursery here in St. Louis looking at the regular sized mums and honestly was somewhat disappointed.  As I turned and walked back to my car, I thought my eyes were deceiving me.  I saw a mum that would eventually FILL the back of my Expedition completely!  It is amazing...

Don't believe me - take a look.




And, little guy is in there purely for reference... As you can see he is none to excited to be standing barefoot in our barren wasteland of a front flower bed...

I am so excited for it to bloom into an amazing purple hue!!  Seriously I am so lame.  But this is as exciting as it gets around here...

WELCOME FALL!!!!!!!!!
