Alright, maybe I was a bit harsh on autumn. It's the middle of November and the majority of the leaves are still on the trees, which is a bit unusual. Yesterday the sun was shining and I waddled about the garden taking snaps of everything that was looking stunning. Think I'll ask for a better camera for Christmas...

An avenue of sunlit lime trees.
If that's not inviting, then I don't know what is... |

Callicarpa bodinieri var. giraldii 'Profusion'
Generally I find this plant a bit... vulgar. Maybe it's the colour. But whatever
you think of it, it's a plant that demands you stop and look at it |

I've said it before and I'll say it again: this combination of Euphorbia wulfenii and Cornus sibirica just about makes me want to pee myself with excitement |

Lovely autumn berries of Cornus sibirica 'Westonbirt' |
I totally agree about the Callicarpa, it is kinda gaudy but also so striking. Love love love the Cornus/Euphorbia combo. x
ReplyDeleteSeconding that Cornus/Euphorbia combination. Outstanding! I would very much like to amble up that lime avenue.
