Monday's Musings: White is still being worn! Labor Day 2020 Three Weeks Later

This is an image of a chalk board with the words I am back written on it.

Today is Monday, September 28th and I realize the last time I published a post here on Blogger was on Sunday, September 20th 2020. Eight days is certainly not a long duration but if you follow this blog regularly, you know that I publish on a more frequent basis, so I aplogize to those of you who may have been expecting content during my mini absence. In any event, as of today, it will  be three weeks since 2020's Labor Day. My blog entry for that holiday discusses the question of wearing white after this holiday passes (in any given year) from  the point of view of Jewel, the Muscovy duck seen in the next image.

JEWEL HAS A STORY IN VOLUME THREE

After all, she wears white throughout the year. (Stories about her are featured story in volume three of my book series, Words In Our Beak).

This is a photo of my three volume book series, "Words In Our Beak." Information re the books is another one of my blog  posts @ https://www.thelastleafgardener.com/2018/10/one-sheet-book-series-info.html
MY BOOK SERIES


As you may know, dear reader, the stories within these books are all set in my rooftop garden. This is a place where various flora wear white after Labor Day, in fact in the case of my fall blooming anemone variety, known as 'Honorine Jobert' (and seen below), only begins to show her colors after Labor Day has come and gone.

This photo features a variety of anemone flowers known as 'Honorine Jobert.' They bloom in the fall and the ones seen here are white and this type of flower is featured in other posts on my blog @ https://www.thelastleafgardener.com/search?q=Anemone

At the time my Words In Our Beak series was published, I was not growing anemones, but during those years I did admire this flower variety whenever I saw it flourishing within gardens in my 'hood and nearby parks.

I have other white flowers that bloom in my garden and they are ones which grow on my vine known as an Sweet Autumn Clematis. They are just starting to bloom, so stay tuned and I will post photographs of them in the not too distance future. 

Meanwhile, if you'd like to read more about the Autumn Clematis, she is featured in volume two of my book series...

This image features volume two of my book series, "Words In our Beak."  Info re the books is in another blog post @
