beautiful fall foliage, your blog was the first place I saw the Coral Bark maple, and the reason I planted mine!
ReplyDeleteYour fall garden color in all its splendor! Beautiful Phillip and so nice to take advantage of the neighbors tree. ;) "Sango-kaku" is a most beautiful specimen... I can't wait for ours to grow up a bit more. ;)
ReplyDeletePhillip, These photos really show off Alabama's fall color bonanza! Your garden looks great in all seasons.....
ReplyDeleteYou have gorgeous fall color in your garden this year! The garden looks beautiful.
ReplyDeleteJust too pretty for words!
ReplyDeleteI find it amazing that your initial thought is that you have no fall color photos to offer.....we would all like to have such an exquisite garden at our home!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Phillip!!Besides the fall colour I think I see some camellias inside the front gate. Yes?
ReplyDeleteYou just proved that when a garden is well designed, it is beautiful year round. BRAVO!!
As always, wonderful colours Phillip!
ReplyDeleteYou have a rainbow of fall colors in your garden Phillip.
ReplyDeleteThere's nothing like that in Austin, so I'm enjoying your fall color from afar. Just beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI have been surprised by the fall color here as well, it has been wonderful. Your garden looks great, and nice of Chester to color coordinate with it.
ReplyDeleteWell, in spite of a rough summer, it looks like you have some glorious fall color...thanks for all the pics, it looks gorgeous down there!
ReplyDeletePhillip - you've surrounded yourself with some great fall color specimen! Love the photo of the kitty on the bench next to the crape myrtle. The 'Boskoop Glory' Japanese maple has some great color too! Thanks for joining in the project! I'll have a sumamry post up in the morning!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous photos of all the beauty of autumn! I enjoyed the tour of your garden.
ReplyDeleteI have been away and am only just now catching up on my blogging. I am glad i didn't miss your fall colors! Your garden is fabulous, and the interplay of its colors and structure reveal how well planned it is. Just when I thought my own garden had reached its fall foliage peak, today brings even more spectacular colors. I thought we weren't going to have much color this fall. I was wrong!
ReplyDeletePS I have got to get me a sango kaku!
What a stunning collection of trees and shrubs you have! Glad my first visit was to see it in full fall splendour.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the beautiful post. I just purchased the Sango-kaku at the Birmingham Botanical Gardens gift shop last week. Even as a young sapling it was too beautiful to pass up. And the Botanical Garden was spectacular. I went for an art show but made sure to walk around outside because of your earlier post about it. The fall color made it absolutely divine!
