 The late afternoon light bathed the front gate in gold

The last of Autumn's colour

The Autumn colours at Athelstone








This year due to low rainfall and lack of really cold nights the season has not been spectacular.  This is probably the last of the colour in my garden.

Autumn at Lambley

This is my most favourite plant nursery in Victoia and plants purchased from there always do well in Adelaide's hot dry climate. David Glenn sold me various plants at Al Ru Open Garden in 2012, the californian fuschias pictured on a previous blog is just one.
