Our Garden - November 2014 |
||
The Acers really come into full glory in Autumn and this year is no exception. |
||
You'll see some more photos of the Acers as you work your way down the page. |
||
There are a few different types of berries around the garden so the birds should be fine. |
||
The Hydrangea heads will be cut soon to take to Linda at Merrywood. |
||
The veg beds on the right have been battered about a bit. Hope at least some of the Brassicas under the nets have survived. |
||
It's lovely to see the leaves changing colour but it seems a shame that they have to die to do so. |
||
The Cotinus is various shades of red. |
||
This Rose seems to be flowering well in front of the shed. |
||
Not sure that these pyracantha berries look too appetising but perhaps they do to our feathered friends. |
||
The Sedum are getting darker and darker each month. |
||
This Cyclamen (and a friend or two) came from Christine's when she was clearing her beds etc. Happy to have rejects like this! |
||
Not sure why these are still flowering (not many flowers now) but they're very welcome. |
||
The Heuchera are still adding a lot of colour. |
||
These Primula need planting out but it's too wet today so they'll have to wait until it fairs up a bit. |
|
|
Not sure why the Honeysuckle's having another go at flowering either - probably because it's been so mild. We've only had one frost so far this Autumn. That's maybe why the Pampas is going great guns as well. |
||
The Eucalyptus doesn't seem any worse for being blown over earlier in the year. |
||
This Rose bud is the last one clinging on to the frame on the left. |
||
These delicate little leaves are on a bush underneath the Silver Birch |
||
The Euonymus have settled in to these beds nicely. |
||
The Clary Claryssima are still flowering well in the patio beds. I really need to take them out to get the Hyacinths planted but it seems such a shame when they look so pretty. |
||
There's quite a bit of Ivy around the garden. Some of it less welcome than other bits but it makes for interesting seed heads. |
||
This is what our garden looked like a couple of days earlier with the first frost of the season. |
||
Some shrubs have leaves that turn yellow in Autumn. This lovely Choisya has yellow leaves all year round. |
||
The three photos above were taken in our front garden just to show that there is something there. That's it for this month - hope you enjoyed the tour. |
