So...I guess they do have a beginning and end, the annuals here.

How abut petunias? My begonias are still hanging in there.

Gracie - impatiens will probably reseed here so you may be suprised come spring. Petunias and begonias should be winter hardy - if we continue to have nice weather I would cut them back and see if they hang in there for the winter.
