Two Cotoneasters

Two of my Cotoneasters showing the final bits of Autumn colour.

This first one had the apex air layered off this year and will need some major growth next year to fill out the image.

This little mame one changed so quickly I nearly missed it altogether.

Yellow Korean Hornbeam

I had hoped for a little red in this Korean Hornbeam’s Autumn colour this year. It wasn’t to be. Maybe next year.

Another virtual, same tree!

Peter, in the last post suggested a tilt to the left to change the angle. It means hiding part of the rock under the soil. What do you think?

 Before Tilt

Put think video clip together this afternoon as well. Sorry about the Japanese Music, but I breech no copyrights this way 🙂

Maple Final Colour

This is probably the final bit of colour from this Japanese Maple before leaf drop. It never fails to please, colour has been fantastic this year.

 

Trident Summer to Winter

A slow day for me, not much going on tree wise. So I thought I would put these few together and post before the BT Engineer arrives for the 3rd day in a row to try and fix my Fibre Optic Broadband!!

Trident from full leaf to no leaf in pictures.

Korean Colour

It’s been a long wait but at last my Korean Hornbeam is just starting to turn. I’m not expecting a lot of red, just the usual yellow, but for once a little red would be nice 🙂

Beech Stripped

I was clearing up some of my trees yesterday in preparation for Winter. This Beech was on my list for putting into the Poly Tunnel. This tree is 63 years old. Forestry records 🙂 This is it with the leaves still clinging on.

And this it after Stan and I did a little plucking. I always like to remove the leaves on my Beech over the Winter. This way I can enjoy the branch structure and it leaves fewer places for little beasties to hide.

Tree for Club Night

I always try and take a tree along to club night showing something seasonal. Tonight I’m taking along this Maple as it starting to colour up nicely 🙂 As you can see it’s wet, hasn’t stopping raining for hours here. Hope this doesn’t put people off attending the meeting tonight 😦

Autumn to Winter

I’ve been looking forward to seeing this Root over Rock Trident sans Leaves for the first time. This was it last week with the dregs of the Autumn colour hanging on.

A quick tap and things fell apart 🙂

Today I removed the last few leaves to see the structure and then allow me to pop it into the tunnel for the Winter.

I’m very happy with the ramification and all pruning wounds are perfectly healed over.

Last time, I promise

I’m sure everyone’s sick and tired of seeing this one but the colour has changed again.
