Autumn leaves - real ones this time

The garden has changed a lot over the last couple of weeks, with the wind and rain.  Autumn colours are coming and going.

Clematis Wyevale has suddenly lost all the colour in its leaves.
Hydrangea Merveille Sanguine is putting on a lovely show.
The blueberries are looking wonderful. but it won't be long before their leaves fall.
A joyful celebration of autumn colours.
The lilac and magnolia leaves are carpeting the path.
The hydrangea at the bottom of the garden is providing lots of interest.
The miscanthus in the border is slowly turning golden.  Colours in the garden have changed more since I took these photos, but I am enjoying the display.

    I think of it as an arboreal fireworks display and it is something I look forward to each and every year. Thank you for sharing some of the beauty of yours.

      Thanks, EC. Each season gives us something to enjoy and be grateful for. The hydrangeas are even more colourful now so there may be more photos...

      Thanks, sustainablemum. Yes they have and we have had time to enjoy them too. It is so easy to take it for granted, but I have felt very thankful for nature this year.

    They are fading but there is still a wonderful array of colours just a little more subdued. I can see yarns in those colours and they just go together!! keep well Amanda x

      Thanks, Amanda. Nature is the best for putting colours together whatever the season - they just work together beautifully.
      Keep well too.

    Autumn seems so long ago in this part of the world. The colours from your garden are quite magical.

      Thanks, Maria. It does seem a long time ago here too. It has rained all weekend!
      There were some beautiful Autumn colours to enjoy this year though.
      Best wishes
