GARDENING: Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day

Short's Goldenrod, Solidago shortii
Welcome to Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day for September 2011.

Here in my USDA Hardiness Zone 5b garden in central Indiana, I feel as though I am reliving the same September that we had in 2010, yearning for some rain to fall.

The primary difference is that this year, I have a garden border that was designed and planted to be in prime bloom late in the season.
