Autumn Gold

Looking from the house you get a good view of the Driveway Garden and trees, as the driveway curves out of sight. In Autumn there is much warmth from the golden and yellow leaf colour.

The weeping birch tree is at its most attractive in autumn as it too turns golden and drops its leaves. I didn't plant it, but I really like this style for a birch tree.

The weeping birch is planted at the corner of the car lay-by, and forms a strong accent in the garden design.

Later in the season I'll probably rake up all the leaves that are covering the gravel. But for now, I'll enjoy their rich golden carpet.
