Love that colour.

 

Thanks Victoria,..and Sheal,..blooms are getting scarce now and Autumn leaves have just started to show that multicolour shade,..its a nice time as well

 

A nice set of photos @glengarry23 autumn is wearing well in your garden

 

We are well into Autumn and the trees are only slightly giving the appearance Autumn,..no real show of shedding leaves as yet,..thankfully the garden has just had its first cold spell to cause the Hostas to wilt.

Beginning to show its blooms,..Heath Asters,..very tall,..up to 1 Metre high.









Smoke Bush,.. 'Cotinus coggygria' Royal Purple.






Heuchera's






Heucherella 'Sweet Tea',..depending on how much sun or shade given,.. will produce darker or lighter foliage.



The Climber,.. still showing off.



Phlox cuttings have rooted.



Every year i sow a few Potatoes in a big tub and manage to get about a months supply of nice 'Rooster Spuds',..these are looking healthy.

 

Interesting photos especially the one with Foxy Molly
I grow potatoes in tubs too but not as many this year. I will have to take them out soon.
The Asters brighten up an autumn garden ...

 

Thanks Michael,..i will pass on your comment to Foxy Molly .

Delighted to hear you sow the potato crop,..i am almost forced to sow mine as when the potato goes to seed its tempting me to go for,..grow your own ,..those Asters were in the back garden,..three bunches growing,..i have another in the very small front garden,..they flower a tad later,..amazing how front and back produce blooms at different times for the same species.

 

We had a few very cold nights and most of the Hostas were turned yellow,..however the one nearest the house doesn't have a blemish.



Trailing Lobelia,..on the house wall.


Another at the back door.



As a child i loved giving the Snap Dragons a squeeze at the back of the neck,..nothing has changed since







More Clematis Freckles have bloomed.



Due to the cold nights i have moved the Alstroemeria 'time Valley' closer to the house as its down to just one bloom today,..there are buds so the extra shelter might encourage them to bloom.

 

It could be due to different amounts of light and at different times of day. Plants tend to respond to the prevailing conditions.

Your Lobalias are still nice and blue, I hope the Alstromeria buds will open now that it has a bit of shelter, it's a pretty flower, I have never tried growing it.
Snapdragons are a fascinating shape aren't they

 

A cold night last night changed nearly all the Hostas yellow.












A fitting bloom today,..Rose ( Rosa 'Casino' )

 

I like that tall brown pot, it's very nice

 

@Loofah ,..i have two of those pots,..they are made of Fibreglass,..the type boats are made from,..i purchased them in a garden centre way back,..i think they were about 10 euro each,..i tend to place a well fitted smaller pot in the large one and plant Shuttlecock Ferns in them,..they wont topple over as i store seed compost in them

 

Hi Michael,..thanks,..i really do like those pots,..below shows one with a Shuttlecock Fern in it,..the other is opposite though hidden by foliage.
