Pittsburgh was recently named a “Best of the World 2012” destination by National Geographic in a piece called “Extreme Metropolitan Makeover.” It is the only U.S. city to make that list and certainly the Phipps Conservatory is one of the reasons why. The Fall Flower Show is on until November 6th. Go visit!

Hot Fall Colors

Filed under: Fall,Our gardens,Slideshows — Judy @ 9:36 pm

Even though the gardens are rapidly winding down, things are coloring up very nicely. We’ve not had a hard frost yet and, with decent moisture still in the soil, relatively warmish days, and nights hovering under 45-50 degrees, the forecast is for continuing gorgeous fall color. Yes, the leaves are coming down, but there is much to admire out there. Take a look!
