Whats Looking Good October

Mixed Nerines, better than ever this year.

 

Some damp autumn colour this morning.

 

Flowering cherry in autumn

 

Acer palmatum 'dissectum' under the lounge window






Red Acer (rubrum?) in the front corner of the garden






Rudbeckia & Cosmos






Cotoneaster tree

 

Mums





Weedy Mallow



Unknown Geranium



Holly with buds



Ginko tree in a pot



Ribes (I think) with lots of small flowers coming on it





Unknown Clematis



The little road that passes the bottom of my garden

 

Hibiscus - more buds to come

Monarda still flowering by fading hydrangea Bobo

Hardy (tall) impatiens. No flowers unfortunately - the short ones do.

White callicarpa berries. I had hoped to have both colours next to each other but the purple is refusing as yet!

 

Some hardy geraniums around the garden today.

Kelly Anne.



Max Frei.



Rozanne.



Walter's Gift.



Bloom Me Away.



Johnson's Blue.

 

A couple of things grown from seed this year …please excuse the powdery mildew!

 

Hydrangea Black Steel Zambia - a cutting from our last property

 

Still flowering away…

 

Colour change in progress

 

Nasturtium 'Milkmaid' still doing it's thing nicely


Likewise, the wild Rocket next to it


The unknown Aster still flowering well


and the Rudbeckias are still providing some brightness on these overcast, damp days.
The dahlia just in front of them [Neon Splendour] is about to produce a flower. It's not been in a hurry this year!

 

Nice to see people's Rudbeckias, I had a little dwarf one but it hasn't showed up this year

 

I risked buying my favourite fuchsias again this year. Even managed to get lovely Dark Eyes. So far gall mite damage is bearable.
And some other colour...

 

Plectranthus ' Mona Lavender' is wonderful this year ...




Westringia ...


Salvia microphylla Pink ...
