Autumn Leaves
'Dancing Peacock' Someone needs to write a song... :) With an atmospheric river and 30 mph winds predicted this past weekend, I was afraid the ginkgo, which had just started to turn color, would be stripped. We were lucky though and it remains intact. Gingko 'Princeton Sentry' After the storm... The Black Tupelo (Nyssa slyvatica) changes color from the inside out - The above photo was taken last week. Here it is today - 'Wolf Eyes' Dogwood (Cornus kousa) has never had such pink color - Catalpa bignonioides 'Aurea', Crape Myrtle 'Dynamite' ( Lagerstroemia ), and Persian Ironwood ( Parrotia persica ) - Japanese Maple 'Beni Hime' - Serviceberry 'Autumn Brilliance' ( Amelanchier ) with tree peonies - Stewartia pyschocamellia starts the color show early. It has since faded to a much softer color - Text and photos by Phillip Oliver, Dirt Therapy

ReplyDeleteCongrats Phillip!! Exciting stuff here.
ReplyDeleteLove the color and the freckles!
ReplyDeleteThis is great. I guess it’s what I needed to remember that spring is just around the corner. Thanks for this beautiful photo.
ReplyDeleteMy Lenten Rose haven't started blooming yet. My daffs are blooming. Haven't been able to get pictures of them yet. Ruptured a tire on Patton Island bridge Wed afternoon late and they put a used tire on Thurs until they can get 2 new ones in. I had a tornado that went overhead last night and hope that the blooms survived.
