Lovely fall color, more than we get over the entire fall.winter season. Two one-hundredths of an inch is all we got during the most recent storm but I hope you'll be lot luckier over the course of the weekend. I also hope the rain will be sufficient to get the area's fires under control.
ReplyDeleteMy heart goes out to you Kris - I know lack of rain is tough and you have it much worse than us. So far, almost 1/2 inch at 10pm tonight. I'm thankful but it has been a long time coming.
DeleteSumac is so reliable and truly unmatched with its brilliant fall display: it never cease to take my breath away.
ReplyDeleteMiscanthus sinensis 'Little Miss' is gorgeous. I should give this dwarf variety a try.

Lovely - that Tiger Eye is just phenomenal!! I just planted a couple of Little Miss in a client's garden. Seeing your photo made me so happy I took a chance on them!
