We have had some beautiful sunny days and frosty nights recently, with the most stunning brilliant blue skies.
The sun lit up the fluffy miscanthus seed heads.
Some roses are still flowering - here is Geoff Hamilton.
Other more seasonal plants are in flower too, here is camellia Yoimachi. I am definitely going to pot this on once it has finished flowering in Spring.
Hydrangeas had a tough year, with a cold Spring and too hot and dry Summer. However, their Autumn colours are beautiful.
Look at the russets, reds, oranges and deep purples on this one plant (this is Merveille Sanguine).
Here is Hydrangea Sundae Fraise with more orange tones to its leaves.
In other news, I have planted my tulips and daffodils, as well as some pale blue muscari. I have nearly finished insulating the pots which need it most and I am making plans for the next gardening season. It is now raining, so the plants are getting a much needed drink.
