Hola! Having not long returned from my holidays, I am struck by how cold it is. Where did Summer disappear to. The view this morning was softened by a grey light mist.
After last nights rain everything was dripping wet, literally.
The one thing I do like at this time of year is seeing the cobwebs:
That poor verbena bonariensis is swamped.
Sedums are in full colour looking at their best this time of year.
The other outstanding plant for this time of year is Miscanthus sinensis seen here with Eupatorium in the fore ground and white Sanguisorba candenensis
So that was my view this morning, rather Autumnal. Now at 6pm the sun is shining as if a different day. I am joining Cathy to share my view. Why don’t you think about sharing yours?
Have a good evening.D.
I have enjoyed a perfect September day, blue sky, warm and lovely! You have asuper garden.
Thank you, that’s kind
Very September and very beautiful. I love the planting in the last photo. Stunning.
Thanks Chloris you are most kind.
Hi Dorris! I bet it was a bit of a shock after the warmth of a holiday in the south. But your garden does look lovely – sedums and grasses (and cobwebs) are to me the essence of autumn and I love the way the Verbena is draping itself everywhere, weighed down by the rain. Have a good week!
Hi Cathy. Such a contrast in weather and light. Like you I do like Autumn colours in the garden and I will adjust of course. It just seems impossible that summer is over. How’s your climate at this time of year?
Very chilly at night now, about 6° yesterday, but we have had some warm sunshine in between showers the past few days. We often get very warm weather into October – not this year though. I think we can forget hopes for an Indian summer! Still, it should be good for getting work done outside this week. 😉
But when you DON’T see those webs… 😐 The miscanthus and sedum are indeed real stars
Thanks Cathy 👍
I am jealous of your white Sanguisorba canadensis and it is beautiful in combo with the Joe Pye and miscanthus. Lovely.
Don’t be jealous, plant some. Thank you
