Some have started to colour; some not at all despite cooler temps. we have had as low as 3 to 4 degrees but more usually it is between 6 to 12 degrees at night.

Great shots Grant, thanks! Love the crop of berries on the Hawthorn. :tu:

What is the ground cover on the Washington thorn?

Steven

Having known some of these for years, but never seeing the true colours they get. I am really looking forward to seeing them next week.


Cheers Pup :)
