We had the frost here last night, but most of my summer flowers are still going. Dahlias, cosmos, begonias, roses (Pilgrim), nasturtiums, autumn phlox, Rozanne, salvia Royal Bumble, foxgloves (Silver Cub), sunflowers, oesteo, borage, coreopsis, milk parsely, autumn flowering wall flowers. I don't think anything has given up the ghost yet and it's set to get warmer for the next week. Some of my dahlia leaves were slightly frost-damaged last night, but just a tad.
Those are good lists Fire and Nollie - let's hope the weather continues to be reasonably kind - I always reckon that the longer the flowers last, the shorter the winter seems.
