where have all the flowers gone

Postby irkwater » Oct 15, 2009 10:57 am

Hi.
At the risk of sounding a bit of a miseryI feel glad that all the annuals and summer bedding have peaked and we are down to the
architectoral evergreens and other things that make a Japanes garden come into its own at this time of year
There is still so much colour for the time of the year and I feel sorry for the r ose gardeners and the like who have nothing but a yard full of dead twigs for the next few months . My wallichiana pines and large bonsai seem to love the winter and appear to thrive in the coldest of weather
Enjoy your autumn and winter Lads andremember you are the lucky gardeners
Regards Brian

Thanks Brian.
I do enjoy my garden in the fall.
Enjoy the structure. Work in peace and comfortable temperatures and plan for the next Spring.
