I've had a community plot in local park, Washington Market Park for several years. It is the park, where I have served as a volunteer on the board of directors for seven years. Usually by mid-November the flowers are long, long gone. But with the unusually warm November and December weather we're enjoying in my neighborhood here in Tribeca, the mini-purple Dahlias and the purple New Guinea Impatiens in my plot are still going strong.
Here are a couple of snaps I took yesterday when I did a walk around the garden with the park gardner, Chris. (Clearly I have to go back with my good camera with the flower shooting mode.)

| Elsewhere in the park, this pretty pink rosebush has dozens of flowers on it, and the white rose bush in my other area of the park, the children's garden had two perfect white roses blooming yesterday. |
