November Colour.

‘ fall is demonstrate on : even the straw man are wearing numb leaf . ’    Osuyu Nakagawa .

The strong winds have done their bad but there is still plenty of autumn people of colour to love .   A wonderful space to see autumn leaf , berries and fruit is the arboretum at East Bergholt Place founded by Rupert Eley ’s great- grandfather .   The rowans are looking in particular good this yr . I love the Formosan one calledSorbus huphehensis‘Pink Pagoda ’ . This has endearing , ferny pinnate leaves and cluster of berries hang like pink sweeties from every subdivision .    The other eye - catching one isSorbus‘Joseph Rock ’ . This rowan has a good autumn colour and amber berry .

Amongst other splendid autumn trees and shrubs at East Bergholt Place there is the interior accumulation ofEuonymus , the mandril Sir Herbert Beerbohm Tree . The wildEuonymus europaeusis familiar to all of us with its startling pink seed cases split up open to reveal orangish berry inside .   For gardens the cultivar ‘ red Cascade ’ is the one to go for .   It is heavyset and tiresome originate and has lovely red autumn leaf coloring on corky leg .   There is also one with delicate pale pinkish fruits and orange semen calledEuonymus hamiltonianus . This too has good fall foliage .

Another eye - catching bush at East Bergholt Place isBerberis Georgii . I have also seen it speltBerberis Georgeiand I ’m not trusted which is correct . I had never take in this before and from a length I wondered what it could maybe be . It was decorated with so many bright cherry berries hanging in long clump that it looked positively on fire .    It is sterile and so in a egotistical exertion to get pollinated it flowers copiously and produces plenteous amount of yield .   It is obscure in the natural state so it must be a garden crossbreed probably havingB. vulgarisin its descent . In saltation it has racemes of bright yellow flowers .   Rupert Eley has a foresightful wait lean for this shrub because to see it is to covet it . allow ’s go for it will presently become more widely uncommitted . If you want to go to the botanical garden it is unspoilt to surround first because on wet day it is close because it gets very tricky under invertebrate foot .

Still in flower in my garden are the gorgeous nerines . The most hardy one : Nerine   bowdeniiincreases yearly into large clumps .   It ask estimable drain and passel of sun to do well .   It grows from bulbs and has glistening green shoulder strap - like leaves and sprays of horn - shaped pink flowers .   I also have the daintyNerine undulatawhich is hardy but I develop it in a pot because I love it so much I wish to put it on the table outside the window so that I can gaze at it .    The dainty flowers are spidery and modest than those ofN. bowdenii . Also in pot I have   the pure whiteNerine   bowdenii‘Alba ’   and a large - flowered dark pinkish one I grease one’s palms in Cornwall called ‘ N. ’ Zeal Giant ’ .   I do n’t recollect either of these two is reliably hardy so I over - winter them in an unwarmed greenhouse . The nameNerinecomes from the Grecian Scripture ‘ Nereis ’ which means    ‘ sea- nymph’- a lovely name for a gorgeous plant .
