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








That's a LOT in my view! All very pretty too.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I have David Austin roses. What is your favorite.
ReplyDeleteI would probably saw "Lady Emma Hamilton' but 'Lady of Shallot' gets high marks too.
DeleteBeautiful, I'd love to stick my nose in the middle of the red 'coffee bean' - lol, looks like it has a lovely fragrance?
ReplyDeleteThat is actually a miniature rose and I just got it this year. I haven't noticed how fragrant it is. I will check!
