Autumn colours

They are lovely at this stage, mine are all gone now but left with lovely red stems.

I suspect that with gales on the way, these won't last long, Pp!

What a thought Ugghh

Have you seen the forecast? Not good at all! I suppose it couldn't last, could it. October was such a lovely month this year!

No it says it is going to turn cold here, have already got the heating coming on earlier, expect most of the leaves will be down this weekend ;o(

well they've got the weather right here this morning, glad I got tidied up yesterday

Me too Grindle .blowing a gale and pouring down!

you hope they change before they drop Spritz... i have several things that should be bright red or orange by now, but they are still green or just starting to change to yellow and already all over the grass with this gale force wind and rain we are having :-((((((

Yes - most of the leaves on the new Ash tree, which had turned deep- red for the first time, are lying on the grass. :-(( At least I got a photo of it a few days ago!

The whole garden looks buried in leaves again. LOTS of raking to do!

me too but mine did'nt even get red or even orange first though... even the rhus has not turned and is now nearly bare :-(((((((

Now that's a shame! :-((

:-((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((

yes very much so

You just disappeared off the edge of my screen! LOL!

yes i know that is how miserable i am about it :-(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((

That's weather for you in the UK! Pity, though.......

I know, never mind at least we go a reasonable summer this year... and there are pluses of a long mild autumn too...

The summer here wasn't good, Angie - just the autumn! There was definitely an east/west split.

ooohhh ours was ok not brilliant but much better than last year, we had plenty of paddling pool and southend days...

Not many here in July/August, I'm afraid. Still, we had a lovely mild mid-September - October! AND saw the sun at times!

It all evens out i guess xx
