Cotinus @ Dursley Garden

This very old Cotinus (Smoke Bush) is absolutely brilliant at the moment. The photos are untouched - this is the real colour!! Just amazing to see. Lots of colour elsewhere around the garden, too, but this is the star for me. Days cooling off, bulbs starting to appear. Never ending action around here!

Last Flush of Autumn Roses

The trees are looking absolutely stunning at the moment, but it was these roses sitting on Judith's kitchen table that caught my eye on the weekend. This is the last flush of autumn roses before winter. The gazillions of bulbs are starting to poke their heads out of the ground. Always something different happening as the seasons change at Dursley. Dursley stays open for garden visitors right through the year. Perfect for a wander around on a warm day!!
