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
I'm gonna try to get over to visit... I would love to see your garden again!
ReplyDeleteIt's a hot mess but hope you can make it!
DeleteI doubt that very much (hot mess)... however since I severely sprained my ankle today shimmying down to the Salmon River off a trail and can barely walk, I'm afraid I am not going to make it.
DeleteOh no, I hope it heals soon. You can come anytime. I want to try and see yours too.
DeleteWish I could attend. Have fun.
ReplyDeleteIf I wasn’t 3000 miles away, I would be there. Always love your posts. Lucky visitors😊
