Peace be with you... My "Peace" rose survived the chilly night. It gives me hope. #gardens #gardening #Bloomscrolling 🌱

Rounded up some dahlias before tonight's potential freeze. Weirdly, I usually only cut flowers when the weather is going to get bad. The rest of the time I just let them hang out in the garden. #gardens #gardening ##Bloomscrolling 🌱

A hot pink Benary's Giant Zinnia enjoying what might be its final poolside day of the season. #gardens #gardening #Bloomscrolling 🌱

OMG I MISS #OLTL

She probably wants a jacket today, but my "Emily Brontë" is managing to enjoy a little fall sunbathing in my garden. #gardens #gardening #bloomscrolling 🌱

Doing some fall weeding and mulching and came across my "Carding Mill," a David Austin rose, in all of its glory. It's blooming better in the fall than it did in the summer! Silly roses ☺️ 🌹 🌱 #gardens #gardening #bloomscrolling

The roses are still hanging on again this year, too. Last year I was cutting blooms until at least Thanksgiving! #gardens #gardening #Bloomscrolling 🌱

The dahlias are still dahliaing. #garden #gardens #bloomscrolling 🌱

The "Roald Dahl" rose from David Austin. October gardening is fun. #gardens #gardening #bloomscrolling 🌱

Murph sits with me too. He was actually sitting before I did. Creatures of habit. 🐶

Let’s show Tillie some love today!

Happy ninety-seventh day of summer to all who celebrate. Yes, I know summer is over, but I am in denial. My garden is still in bloom, and this photo of the "Princess Alexandra of Kent" from David Austin is a perfect example. I hope its beauty brings a smile to your face 🌱 😊 #bloomscroll #KrollManor

Happy ninety-sixth day of summer (or third bonus day of summer since it's now fall). A little garden irony. This is the "Summer Surprise" rose and *SURPRISE!* it didn't bloom all summer. Oh, these wacky plants. 😆 🌱 #flowers #rosegarden #flowergarden #flowerphotography #extendedsummer #KrollManor

Yay, pool sighting! Beautiful.

Happy ninety-second day of summer to all who celebrate. This flower is the "Fiji Eleganza" extravaganza of color. I tend to buy plants for random reasons. I bought this one because I want to visit Fiji and because I like Fiji Water 😂. It has been a reliable bloomer. 🌱 #rose #flowers #KrollManor

Happy ninety-first day of summer to all who celebrate. This is the "Pop Art" rose. I love it because of its multicolor blooms. No bloom is ever quite the same. This is part of the "artists" section of garden, with "Maurice Utrill," "Chihuly," "Frida Kahlo," and others nearby. 🌱 #roses #KrollManor

hey... she's worth MORE! LOL

Happy ninetieth day of summer to all who celebrate. This is the "Silver Years" dahlia against a backdrop of many of the other dahlias I have shared this summer. I am hoping the mild weather continues because it's always sad to me when the growing season ends. 🌱 #dahlia #flowers #KrollManor #summer

Happy eighty-eighth day of summer to all who celebrate. The dahlias are in full bloom -- better than they've been all season! This is a "Twitterpation" dahlia -- or at least that is my best guess. The person who gave me dahlias last year mislabeled them 🧐. Either way, it's absolutely gorgeous. 🌱

Happy eighty-seventh day of summer to all who celebrate. Hovering over the garden like a little ball of sunshine is this "Teasing Georgia" rose. I have a plant on each side of my garden path and my goal is to eventually trellis them to have a fun garden feature. 🌱 #roses #flowers #summer #KrollManor

Her best photo

Happy eighty-fourth day of summer to all who celebrate. On this beautiful late summer day, I wanted to share a photo of the "Beautiful Day" rose. It's a beautiful orange with a strong, fruity fragrance. If only today could be cloned through the fall months... 🌱 #rose #flowers #KrollManor

I'd crack up if she took Britt's cheeks and pulled to make sure it wasn't a mask ahahahhaha #GH

Happy eighty-third day of summer to all who celebrate. This "Hawaiian Punch" hibiscus hasn't bloomed for the past two or three years. Now it just showing off. It also has been pushing out blooms that have partially white flowers. Nature is so much fun. 🌱 #flowers #summer #KrollManor

Happy eighty-second day of summer to all who celebrate. I don't know if Sandra Bullock celebrates summer, but this "Miss Congeniality" rose sure does. It was moved to my island of misfit roses area because it was dying. Now she's the queen of the misfits, living her best flowery life 😆 🌱 #KrollManor

Happy seventy-ninth day of summer to all who celebrate. It's back to the dahlia garden with a threefer: "Night Butterfly," "Joey Winnie," and an unknown red variety. This is a good example of the different types of dahlias -- something for everyone. 🌱

Happy seventy-eighth day of summer to all who celebrate. Another day, another dahlia. This is "Grand Cancun" and it is coming in two different ways: the proper maroon with white edges, and some that have no white. Gardening is always an adventure. 🌱 #dahlia #summer #flowers #KrollManor

Happy seventy-seventh day of summer to all who celebrate the. It's back into the dahlia patch today with a twofer. The orangey-red/white was a gift and I don't know the name, so it is called "No. 2." Peeking from underneath is a "Fashion Monger" that has changed color since its initial planting. 🌱

Happy seventy-fifth day of summer to all who celebrate. It's back in the dahlia bed today with this beautiful "Kelsey Annie Joy" collarette dahlia. She's a very happy flower and you can't help but smile when you see it. 🌱 #dahlia #flowers #KrollManor #flowerphotography

it was PRICELESS--I loved it. So funny and campy yet..soapy

Happy sixty-seventh day of summer to all who celebrate. These are some Pink Drift roses planted in a bed that I saw as a throwaway or test bed. I wasn't sure it would get enough sun.They aren't the most exciting or best-scented rose, but they are a great addition to the yard. 🌱 🌹 #KrollManor

@ghwubs.bsky.social looks like birthday greetings are in order. Happy!!! Make it memorable. (I’m assuming you recognize this reference)

Happy sixty-third day of summer to all who celebrate. We're getting a little royal today with this beautifully scented "Princess Alexandra of Kent" rose, a David Austin roses. They are even more 😍 in real life. 🌱 🌹 #roses #summer #flowers #KrollManor

@ghwubs.bsky.social nobody caught Molly’s story? Clint Buchanan and Delilah were characters?

Happy fifty-eighth day of summer to all who celebrate. The flowers have moved inside! Some dahlias and roses from my garden are hanging out in the dining room, which is one of the rooms I renovated. 🌱 #summer #flowers #KrollManor

Happy sixieth day of summer to all who celebrate. This is the "Kelvin Floodlight" dahlia. This was supposed to be in my new dahlia beds, but I misplaced the box it was overwintering in (plant hoarder problems! 😆) and forgot about it. Still, it's living it's best life poolside in a pot 🌱 #KrollManor

don't even TRY it lol

I remember Lisa saying her crush on "Robert" was overwhelming and she was star struck when she had to play her first scenes with him #GH

Hey, #GH fans. My former #TwoScoops columnist Tamilu is back with her latest take on General Hospital. In her commentary, she suggests that Drew Cain needs to... (gulp!). #Soapsky Give it a read here: danjkroll.com/blog/1qxu

Oh no, we lost another legend. Tristan Rogers who played Robert Scorpio on General Hospital on and off since 1980 has died. He recently filmed scenes for what were his last. Such an amazing legacy, he will be so missed. May he rest in peace & condolences to his family.🙏💜 tvline.com/news/tristan...

I'm trying to write up this week on #GH and damn...I keep coming back to TR. What a year it's been for the whole GH family. The actors have to be reeing. Again, I have to say what a blessing he gave us to come back one more time. He didn't have to do that but it was just such a poignant farewell.

We were so fortunate to have TR do one last cameo on #GH I feel like he did it for the fans. Love to his coworkers, family and friends

Happy fifty-fifth day of summer to all who celebrate. I picked my first batch of blackberries today. It's always a challenge to outsmart the birds, fox, squirrels, raccoons... so I am always happy that some fruit survives. #summer #fruit #KrollManor #gardens #gardening

@ghwubs.bsky.social Jordan has an apartment. Does that mean she’s getting a story?

His brain is in a jar. Every mention of Faison has me hearing Whoopi Goldberg in Soapdish saying “he has no head”.

Happy forty-ninth day of summer to all who celebrate. This hibiscus has waited the entire summer to produce its first flower... and there are more than a dozen more lying in wait. Patience. Things don't always happen when we want them to. 🌱 #summer #flowers #flowerphotography #KrollManor

Happy fifty-second day of summer to all who celebrate. It's a trip to my new dahlia garden and the stunning "Neo." I wasn't sure this one overwintered, but it pulled through and put out these beautiful blooms. 🌱 #dahlia #flowers #flower #summer #KrollManor

Happy forty-eighth day of summer to all who celebrate. This is the "Ultraviolet Simplicity" rose. I haven't seen this available for purchase for several years, so I am glad I bought a second when I did. Sorta plain bloom, but it makes up for it with an amazing fragrance. 🌹🌱 #summer #roses #flowers

Happy forty-sixth day of summer to all who celebrate. Today's it's all about my wall of hydrangeas. This makeshift hedge is about 60' long. There's a crazy story about it, but I don't have the character limit for it. It'll be in my memoir that I will never write. 🌱 #KrollManor
