I think I say it over and over, but I cannot overstate my admiration for creative people. Once again a designer's use of form and color just blows me away! The muted stars and moon, and the umber pumpkin contrast with the aubergine colored word "Halloween" - wonderful!
For your Tuesday Garden Party pleasure, I bring you...hostas!
How many do I have? Let's just say I have an assortment - a collection!
Blue Cadet, Little Popcorn, and Sunspot
How was I to resist these three cuties? They were 50% off - and brand new, fresh plants - small hostas - perfect for my "Hosta in a Pot" fetish!
I also purchased some pansies - they are the most hopeful plants as the growing season winds down.
And yes, there is a fuchsia on top - such tiny blossoms and wonderful foliage!
I confess, I'm in love with chartreuse - can you tell?
Now I need to go back outside and plant everything!

October is the best time to buy plants! especially perennials! I'm in love with your pansies!
Another lovely pumpkin. And yes, I buy plants in October! I buy them year round, actually :o)
You found some great deals and next Spring, you'll be very happy to have bought those hostas! Hostas are so wonderful. I already have a few things on my plant list to buy. After reading your post, I think I'm going to have to add hostas to the list!
I hope you don't mind. I linked your post to my PORCH AND GARDEN PARTY at firstadream.blogspot.com.
The flowers are gorgeous... have a wonderful day!
