1.Cool nights mean Autumn colour. There’s a definite fall feel to the garden now. The angle of the sun has changed. There are longer shadows. There are seeds and dried flowers about, apples and pears on the ground. No more blackberries here. Ornamental grasses are strutting their stuff. Just look at the Hydrangeas!
Oakleaf Hydrangea
Quickfire Hydrangea
2. Aster-like plants and Coreopsis Sienna Sunset
3. Agastaches have great variety… and wonderful scent!.
Black Adder
Agastache rupestris
4. A favourite delicate-looking grass: Calamagrostis Brachytricha
5. Cornus Kousa has entered its fall stage. Here it is in fruit.
6. Clematis are in their final stages…

love the Oakleaf Hydrangea – it’s my fave Hydrangea but I don’t think it would survive the hot, dry summer in my garden.

You always make us happy with your show of clematis … the last picture against the light is superb! I also enjoyed seeing the 2 hydrangeas. Mine are faded now and patiently wait for winter …

Dang, that last photo is wonderful! Your oak leaf is far ahead of mine (strange since you’re north) and gives me a taste of things to come.

Love that last photo. Your clematis are all still going strong, it seems. Must look wonderful in the garden. Princess Kate . . . just wow. I love all the textures you create w/the grasses & seed pods, varying blossom, & that oak leaf hydrangea. I keep lusting after that one. Maybe next year.
