With the month almost at the close and the busyness of life at its peak right now (or so it seems), I thought I'd post some photos of my garden in November. I took these right before the big freeze set in which either forced all the leaves to drop or turned them into a crisp. Still the beauty of autumn was here until the end...
They don't call it Burning Bush for nothing! This
Euonymus alatus literally looks like it's on fire.
When most of the garden flowers are heading off to sleep, these Anenome 'Prince Henry' are in full bloom.
All the hostas are now turning a brilliant shade of yellow, which adds such a flair of awesomeness to the garden.
What would a fall garden be without mums? I love how these are flopped over the boulders, down the slope here.
Silly daffodils, it's not spring yet! Go back to bed.
The Japanese Maple's deep reddish hue in autumn looks so pretty against the weeping spruce.
The foliage and the drying flower heads of this sedum are eye catching right now.
And of course the variegated holly is in full "bloom" with berries galore - just in time for the winter season!
So there you have it - my Long Island, NY garden in November! I hope you were able to get out and enjoy the fresh autumn air before the cold and snow set in.
As always, you can follow me on Instagram and Facebook for more frequent photo updates.
Until soon!
