Gingko 'Troll' |
The Fall colors seem to be coming sooner this year. The Stewartia was the first tree I noticed, and it changed weeks ago. Others, such as many of the Japanese maples and dogwoods, haven't changed yet.

Stewartia pseudocamellia |
|
Bluestar (Amsonia hubrechtii) is the most colorful fall perennial.
|
|
I would say the most colorful shrub is the Bloodtwig Dogwood (Cornus 'Midwinter Fire'). It began to change color weeks ago and it has really grown this year. |
|
The best year so far for Fothergilla 'Jane Platt'. This has been an extreme slow grower but it is finally filling in. |
|
A colorful grouping with the amazing Miscanthus 'Little Miss', Joe Pye Weed and Sourwood (Oxydendrum arboretum). |
|
Miscanthus 'Little Miss' is the most colorful ornamental grass in the garden. |
|
Black Tupelo (Nyssa sylvatica) changes color from the inside out. |
|
Wiegela 'Wings of Fire' |

Looking down the garden pathway with Cornus 'Midwinter Fire' in the distance. Notice the mushrooms - I've never seen so many as I have this year. |
Wow, this is fantastic! I love the Gingko. You're a true artist with color and texture. Little Miss in front of the green doesn't even look real. And the orange Stewartia in front of the purple blooms, my goodness. I'll say it again, your neighbors are so lucky!
ReplyDeleteLovely splashes of yellow and orange! That last shot is beautiful, mushrooms included.
ReplyDeleteYour photo of the Miscanthus is fantastic! I love your compositions in the garden and on film.

ReplyDeleteWonderful fall colors, Philip.
How tall is your Stewartia pseudocamellia and how long did you have it?

Oh my goodness, I swoon from all this gorgeous fall color! But I am an absolute nut for autumn. Well done Phillip!
