My only visit there was in the early summer but it looks as though the garden is just as beautiful in the fall. Those Japanese maples are stunning! Also, the place just always seems so immaculate.
ReplyDeleteI love those colors. It is good that you waited for the right moment to capture them.
ReplyDeleteA gorgeous garden and especially spectacular with the fall foliage colors! I must visit in October one of these years!
ReplyDeleteThe color and the forms of those Japanese maples is amazing!
ReplyDeleteI saw this garden on two blazing hot and sunny days last summer, just before and during Portland Fling. It was lovely then, but this is spectacular. I would love to see it in full fall color one day. Thanks for sharing your gorgeous images!
ReplyDeleteI am glad you went back, just for a chance to see these photos.
