What a confused garden!

Posted on 31 Aug, 2007 3 comments

Is your garden as confused as mine is? There are still lots of summer flowers out to enjoy.

\

But there are also signs of Autumn coming. Leaves are already changing colour weeks before they usually do, like this Virginia Creeper!

\

There are berries on my Pyracantha. I do enjoy the sight of this Virginia Creeper climbing through it, but it’s so early this year!

\

And this sad heap of dead vine leaves is waiting for me to clear it up – normally this happens much later in the year. It seems that my garden thinks that autumn has come – in August!

\

But here we have more confusion between the seasons – I have several plants flowering – or about to flower – for the second time: a cistus, a ceanothus and …a PRIMROSE!
