Late autumn colour

Posted on Nov 1, 2014 by TanGental

Today it is the First November. It is meant to be cold and wet and a time for anoraks and heated car seats and soup and steamy breath.

So what’s with my garden?

About TanGental

My name is Geoff Le Pard. Once I was a lawyer; now I am a writer. I've published several books: a four book series following Harry Spittle as he grows from hapless student to hapless partner in a London law firm; four others in different genres; a book of poetry; four anthologies of short fiction; and a memoir of my mother. I have several more in the pipeline. I have been blogging regularly since 2014, on topic as diverse as: poetry based on famous poems; memories from my life; my garden; my dog; a whole variety of short fiction; my attempts at baking and food; travel and the consequent disasters; theatre, film and book reviews; and the occasional thought piece. Mostly it is whatever takes my fancy. I avoid politics, mostly, and religion, always. I don't mean to upset anyone but if I do, well, sorry and I suggest you go elsewhere. These are my thoughts and no one else is to blame. If you want to nab anything I post, please acknowledge where it came from.

    Is that normal? It’s very green in Idaho this time of year, but no bloomin’ flowers! Maybe they all bloomed to cheer on your next installment of Harry Spittle.

      Don’t! We’ve decide, the Pond Guru and me, to rebuild the back bank with turves (done) and let them knit together over the winter. meantime we have found more york stone for an edge and collected more slates. I even bought a new lining. So a winter watching it fill to half way with rain and then, in the spring…

    This year seems to have been a bumper year for foliage – everything is growing to three times the size here, folks who normally don’t get hay-fever have really suffered this year – ( lovely colours and flowers Geoff ) my fuschia tree totally took over the front garden,

    Our garden is just the same Geoff. Geraniums out, roses still blooming, fuchsia, the lot. I do hope we get a proper winter this year unlike last year. I never thought I would be wishing for frost and really cold weather. Lovely photos btw 🙂
