Garden Colours

Autumn may be well and truly here, but there is still a splash of colour in the garden.

As the leaves fall, the bright red stems of the Dogwood are becoming visible and this should remain a feature throughout the winter. There are still some flowers out there as well though.

The Marigolds continue to flower and have been going non-stop for months. The Geraniums have finally put on a bit of a show and there are also some lovely new crocuses in full flower. I only planted the bulbs a few weeks ago, not realising that the were an autumn flowering variety, but they must be as they are out already. Either that or they are very confused!

It’s actually really nice to see some fresh new flowers in the garden at this time of year so I might have to get some more autumn flowering crocuses if these continue to do well.
