I love pretty fall days. Thanks for sharing yours!
ReplyDeletePhillip how wide is your Crimson Queen maple? I planted one along the driveway and I'm worried that it might mug folks as it gets older. I have 3 or the coral bark maples and planted a Red Emperor Japanese Maple today that I found for half off. I have several re-blooming iris starting a re-bloom. Hope the heavy freeze holds off until they open. Mary

Wow Philip... your Sango kaku looks great! I put one in a month ago and am hoping it's going to make it here despite being rated zone 6 (we're 5). Great post! Larry

ReplyDeleteOne of those perfect golden fall days indeed! It is magical the way the light filters through the fall colors and your photos capture that magic perfectly.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful fall photo's! The colors are so vibrant. Love the photo's of your Jap.Maples too. ~Brenda
ReplyDeleteWelcome back! Nothing like a good vacation to energize you.
ReplyDeleteI planted a sweet shrub this year, not expecting much from it. Wow! Now I want to plant two more. Today the fall foliage here is so spectacular, I can hardly pull my eyes away.
What a beautiful Japanese maple! It has been so dry, I'm a bit surprised the fall color is so good this year. I was expecting everything to just turn brown and die.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful...isn't it amazing just how much things can seem to change when we are gone for a few days...especially at this time of year!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures - Love the Japanese maples!
