Calamagrostis ‘Karl Foerster’ and Eupatorium ‘Elin’
Cold. Minus six degrees. The ground is rock hard and the plants are showing a crust of white ice. The sunrise cast a rather golden light.
Molinia ‘Transparent’, Stipa Gigantea and Coreopsis ‘Sunbeam’
I am enjoying the golden tones of the grasses and the backdrop form of the Horse Chestnut trees. This weather is I understand the coldest snap for six years. It looks rather beautiful but boy it is cold. My neighbours are sporting their thick woolly jumpers.
No jacket required
Cathy at https://wordsandherbs.wordpress.com hosts the Tuesday View meme. Do take a look at her lovely blog.
It may be cold, but the attraction in the frosted forms is still there – your grasses look wonderful in the golden light
I am so pleased with the grasses. Thanks Cathy
It has been very cold here too Dorris, and I chickened out of going out early yesterday morning to take photos! Your grasses look so lovely in the morning sun. 🙂
Thanks Cathy
The sunlight glinting on the grasses and making them almost look on fire is wonderful. A sight to be enjoyed from indoors perhaps?!
Indeed! From the kitchen window
Your grasses and seed heads are looking fabulous, they’re such a great addition to a garden in winter. I love the golden glow you’ve caught in your photos.
