Herbaceous perennials I grow.
Silhouetted grasses
November sun is good.
Snow this morning
I stumbled out the door this morning with the dogs to find an inch or so of wet snow on the ground. Then we lost power from 6 to 7:15 a.m. Fortunately it got light enough to shoot some pix before we got lights, water and heat back.
The usual scenes for the time-lapse stack…
The grasses went down in some crazy patterns. (They bounced back by the time I got home from work.)
The 12-foot Miscanthus floridulus came down to around 5 feet.
A normally completely upright willow weighted down.
Weekend pix: Seasons change
It’s official. It’s fall. The signs are everywhere.
I can’t wait to add some fall pix to my time-lapse stack.
Love the way this hybrid hazelnut colors up next to the driveway.
The ornamental grasses are coming into their own.
More colchicum. Looks like I have four decent patches, three different varieties.
Aconitum (monkshood) finally flowering, a sure sign of fall.
Elephant ears starting to lose their chlorophyll, with a little backlighting.

I almost entered this one, because it’s hard to do justice to an ornamental grass planting in a 500-pixel-wide image.
Here are some more ornamental grass images.
