This year some trees are doing the magical thing. This maple tree has become completely red, in a friend’s backyard the other day.

This is where I have my coffee every morning. The sun comes in the south window this time of year, a blessing for dark Seattle. I love having plants right there.

This is from a Crimson Glory rosebush I rooted from a cutting a few years ago. Here in Seattle we are expecting big rain, finally, so I picked this fall blossom.

Hardy fuchsia is very good in the fall garden, still going strong. Blooms in shade or sun. They look like earrings to me. What do they look like to you?

These are some of my very favorite roses, with their sweet and spicy scent. You can see the color varies from bloom to bloom.

I guess the fertilizing and compost I added at the right time, plus the fact that the bushes are over a dozen years old, had something to do with the incredible blueberry harvest this year. YUM. The pie was the best ever.
