November pansies

From Red October to Yellow November.

On my balcony and in the condo courtyard, butter and lemon and touches of red-purple have brightened November's gray days.

I'd like to say this is due to my careful planning, but to be honest, it's because of the limited colour variety at the garden centre earlier this month.

Here are some images of the flowers and grasses in pots in our condo's courtyard garden.

I wonder what colour December will be. I'm thinking white.....lots of white.

So delicate and beautiful. I love this time of year when the scarcity of blooms mean you really SEE what is there.

So true, Tess. The blooms are few and far between and very precious.

I don't think I will ever be able to NOT have pansies and violas in my garden(s). I used to have so much trouble with aphids invading them...I'm not sure why they've been pest-free these past few growing seasons, but I'm thrilled bugs -- except for tiny slugs -- are ignoring them.
