What a difference a day makes or October in the garden

It was such a warm day yesterday and has been a really wet miserable day today. I made the most of the weather yesterday and planted some daffodils in pots.  I also took the opportunity to have a look round the garden too. (The song 'What a difference a day makes' by Dinah Washington sprang into my head, hence the title of the post, even though the song is nothing to do with the weather, so here's a link to it on Youtube.)

 Autumn is certainly here, as can be seen by the Blueberries, here Northland...

...turning their fiery colours.  They have fruited really well this year and are such an easy to look after plant, as long as they are in ericaceous compost.  Mine don't always get rain water either - it depends how much is in the water butt.

A few last roses from 'Winchester Cathedral'.

 Buttery yellow leaves on Ginkgo Biloba Troll.

 Liriope muscari flowering away beautifully.

 My favourite grasses - Miscanthus Silberfeder.

 Cosmos Dazzler, doing what the name suggests.

 Aster (renamed something I can't spell, but having checked, it is Symphyotrichum, although it will always be an aster to me) Little Carlow, showing which flowers have been pollinated by turning red/brown - really helpful for the bees.

Aster (Symphyotrichum) novae-angliae September Ruby (I think).

Miscanthus Starlight - smaller but still beautifully formed.  I am really enjoying the autumn colours and hope they will stay for a few more weeks.
