A hint of autumn

Post by Matthew »

Judt thought id post the first tones of autumn. We had a couple of nights go 3.5 here last week but it has started to warm up again expecting 28 most the week :lost: around easter a strong cold front is forcasted which will hopefully get the days into early teens and night single digets.

the only thing i have here is a Ginko starting go paler round the edge of the leaves. As I have only had a few month, I dunno what they are normally like, but doubt it would be autumn colour yet

Nice colour you are going to get there Matthew :yes:

Nice Matt. I like the composition and lighting in the first pic... I love the trunk on the Tree on the right too, what is it. Give it to me :fc: :lol:
There are no signs of Autumn In my pots at all yet, and the willows are growing like crazy.
I have been looking around my hood and have noticed the same type of tree turning and not other varieties. In all not much happening here :beer:

We have not much Autumn colour here yet :( I think it will be stunning and long lived when it finally does arrive. Looking good Matthew. I wish i had time to come and visit all you good folk.

Great collection and set up.

I have a maple that is still powering on and am wondering if it will ever turn.
