Autumn flower colours

The weather in London today is rubbish but I wanted to share with you a few snaps of the garden I took while the sun was shining. And I'm particularly chuffed as all the flowers featured I have grown from seed or tuber in the case of some of the dahlias!  

I've never grown so much colour from scratch before and was rather pleased with the results. Hoping next year to produce more flowers from each plant but for a first attempt not bad in a tiny patch of ground in the middle of Brixton!

But just to show it really is autumn found this beauty hanging off the dahlias. There are always lots of spiders to be found this time of year. Love'em
