I’m still trying to figure out how I didn’t notice all the #fallcolor last year! Maybe the trauma of moving? 🤪

This is #CrapeMyrtle 'Sioux', down at the bottom one of the #EncoreAzaleas

Encore Azalea 'Autumn Moonlight'

Douglas Aster

Douglas Aster

Roses: new and old

I’m still getting used to an #azalea as a late summer #flower, but #EncoreAzaleas has designed #azaleas that bloom in Spring&Fall so that #TodayInTheBackyard I have #EncoreAzaleaAutumnMoonlight plus a couple normal late summer blossoms: #DouglasAsters & #Roses

This time of year there's something new in the garden each day.

Today the first #irises ( #IrisLemonada & #IrisMauiMoonlight) burst open.

#EncoreAzaleaAutumnChiffon and #EncoreAzaleaAutumnTwist are at their peak!!!

52Frames-Week18:Negative Space
It was too tempting to just step out the backdoor & use my azaleas for this week’s “negative space” theme.

My garden only has one #rhododendron, #HoneyButter. It’s just about at its peak & it is a show-stopper!
The #EncoreAzaleas are starting to bloom. The brilliant red one is #AutumnFire. The two-tone one doesn’t have a tag, but it might be #AutumnStarburst.

I’ve discovered more plant tags!! Part 2
One more #EncoreAzaleas that's next to the lawn: #AutumnSunburst.
The bush in the corner is #AbeliaRubyAnniversary.
One of the untagged hydrangeas might be #HydrangeaEclipse!
