I have waited all summer for this pot full of green foliage to bloom. And this morning I went outside to work in the garden and found this single Gerber daisy blooming. . .the first day of Autumn. Ron nursed this plant through the winter knowing it was an annual but hoping that he could keep it alive. Well, he succeeded. It just waited to the very end to show her glory. Don't know if Ron is going to try to nurse it again this winter. Will wait and see.

All this greenery
Lush and green the Gerber leaves
Waiting for a bloom
Waiting for a bloom
All the summer long I wait
And she blooms today
Proud as she can be
Vivid is the color red
So very pretty
