Looking Up Into the Japanese Garden
Heatherwood Fall
Colors abound as we look from the back yard up into the Japanese inspired area of our Heatherwood garden. The reds of the Autumn Brilliance maples and the yellows of the linden and other Japanese maples provide the bright color. The blues and greens of the various conifer trees and shrubs fill in the gaps. The bright orange of the heather provides a special accent in the bottom center. The tan of the background hill sets off the garden colors. The Japanese Kotoji lantern stands out to orchestrate the changing colors. Soon the chartreuse of the Wintersonne mugho pine on the left and the green of the Saratoga ginkgo in the center will turn to brilliant yellows.
The autumn colors seem to change every day. Our daily walk through the garden is always full of surprises!
