Sub Tropical Fall Arrangement
No colorful leaves... no crisp brisk winds... no leaf covered trails.....So when you live in the sub tropics you use what you must! Birds of Paradise, Mexican sage, Variegated Ginger and a Musquee De Provence pumpkin from the garden!
Isn't the color of this Musquee De Provence pumpkin gorgeous? It sorta looks iridescent!
The first blossom my Bird of Paradise bloomed!

I love love love pumpkins and anything fall-ish! You're right that pumpkin does have a scrumptious hue. I wish you much success in your pumpkin endeavors.... just remember your dear friend when the bounty rolls in! lol ;-)
Hi Mandi
Thanks for stopping by. My pumpkins didn't do very well either this year. This was actually the only pumpkin I got from that vine. I've heard everything from pollination problems to don't fertilize! Not sure myself. I am going to try again next year.
Egghead, Thanks for the compliment. I love varigated ginger. It is a beautiful plant and very hardy outside here. I bet you could grow it in a pot.
