Hardy Hibiscus and Autumn Crocus

A couple photos of plants in my garden in September - Colchicum autumnale (Autumn Crocus) and Hibiscus sp. 'Lord Baltimore' (a hardy hibiscus that grows like a perennial here):

September gardens at Point Defiance

A few photos of fuchsias I liked:






Some pictures with bees in the flowers. The first is Actaea (Bugbane). The remaining are dahlias:
