Connie’s meadow garden in Minnesota, revisited

We travel to Connie Ortberg ’s garden in Carver , Minnesota , exactly five months ago today ( freshen your memoryHERE ) . Check out what ’s going on in her garden this descent !

Connie says,“Despite the long , hot , dry summertime here in Minnesota , the meadow seemed to rebound this descent . We had our first tough Robert Lee Frost last Saturday and well … that was “ The Last Hurrah . ” Now onto daffodil and allium planting . I ’m look forward to cool temps , walks on fallen leave , campfires , apple cider , and all things cosy . ”

Me , too , Connie . I love pin … and I loved your garden last hurrah !
