A light frost and early mist turned into a lovely bright but crisp autumnal day, mostly spent doing more digging and getting bulbs in, but this morning I went to the Scampston Hall Autumn Plant Fair. being so close (less than five miles) it's easy to pop over there. The sale was a bit sparse, but there were some nice things on offer and I acquired some autumn gentians in the hope that I'll be able to grow them here. Afterwards I took a quick turn round the Scampston walled garden, where the plantings are taking on lovely autumn colours.

ReplyDeleteThe Sarracenia really glow with the light shining through them like that, giving them an other worldly look. It suits their unusual structure.
