Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day - October 2014

Welcome again to my Algarve garden!

This year the autumn rain came early and temperatures dropped but not enough to stop the grass growing. As a result, my garden looks a bit out of control. 

The roses are straggly but in this end of the bed the colour combination pleases me. It wasn't something that I planned but I like it.

At least one lavender needs cutting back.

My bougainvillea is looking quite sad.

You can still find a rose bloom here...

... and here.

There are also some iceberg roses by the side wall over there.

I took the photos on the 16th because work and rain got in the way on Bloom Day. Today I cut the grass so now the garden looks a bit tidier. Next, I need to plant bulbs!
