Today, there's not a bloom to be found at Clay and Limestone, the way too early Arctic cold front flash froze everything except two stalwart plants, Hamamelis virginiana and Symphyotrichum praealtum. They put on quite a nice show until just last week, so I felt fine sharing them for my Bloom Day post!

The tawny and russet tones of fall leaves are so beautiful, especially against a winter-washed blue sky. Love your pictures, Gail, as always!
ReplyDeleteStill have lots of nice winter interest going on there Gail!
ReplyDeleteI love those leaves that twist and curl! They make me smile!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful day!

Yours made me smile. Mine is under a gray sky right now. Still, there is interest there.
ReplyDeleteYes, there's not much flowering in my world either, but there is plenty of wonderful winter foliage! Great shot of the Amsonia hubrichtii.
ReplyDeleteYour garden still has lots to share. Happy GBBD and FF.
ReplyDeleteEven though the flowers are gone the coppery brown foliage is stunning...
ReplyDeleteAll lovely--blooms and foliage and seed heads!
ReplyDeleteThe light shining through the foliage and seedheads shows them off so well. Lovely post for Bloom Day and Foliage Follow-Up, Gail!
ReplyDeleteLovely subtle shades of fall..with beautiful light! Such a fascinating time of year in the garden.
ReplyDeleteHoliday prep work, and a busy schedule have kept me from even barely looking at my garden! Hopefully I can get out there to at least look around in January!
