Love that top photo from an unusual angle.
ReplyDeleteThe rudbeckia flowers are planted ar a higher level, Jessica, I wasn't lying on the ground
DeleteIt's definitely starting to look autumnal now, the leaves on my blueberry bushes are just starting to turn.
ReplyDeleteIt is, Jo, we were on the North Yorkshire Moors at the weekend and it is even more autumnal there,

DeleteLovely photos, Sue. I have tried many times to get a good photo of the Verbena Bonariensis, but so far it has eluded me!
ReplyDeleteThe verbena was on a vase, Mark so kept still
DeleteIt is amazing how everything has a unique design...lovely photos!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Juliet
DeleteGorgeous photographs to welcome Autumn {officially!}
ReplyDeleteThank you Debs
DeleteSo beautiful …. Is that a very tall Rudbeckia in the first photo? Mine are all low growing; I'd love some tall ones for cutting. Also, what is that strange berry? And are the prickles soft so the fruit is easy to get at? (Sorry, so many questions!)
ReplyDeleteIt's a perennial rudbeckia deamii, Cari which it says grows to 60 cm but ours is over a metre tall so I am not sure what has happened.
DeleteForgot to mention the berry is a Japanese wineberry. The canes have vicious thorns but in the photos what you see are sticky airs like on a sundew. The berries are tiny and so far we haven't picked enough at one time to determine the taste. They have acted more like a garnish on fruit salads. Ask as many questuins as you like Caro :-)
DeleteI love the changing seasons - there is always something new to see. What is the plant in that last photo? Looks like some sort of berry, but I've never seen anything quite like it.
ReplyDeleteIt's a Japanese wineberry Margaret
DeleteThat's really beautiful! Great shots!
ReplyDeleteIt's really beautiful! The purple flower look stunning!
