The strong winds have removed more of our colourful leaves this past week. The lindera on the lawn has been glowing gold for some time. I have been wondering yet again what the beautiful tree is at the bottom of the rock garden- I think it's Nyssa sinensis but if you have any suggestions please let me know- it's always so late to colour and holds leaf for ages.
I was surprised to see the Correa backhousii on the front gable of Gran's house is completely covered with flowers, surely unusual at this season but encouraging!
I have a Nyssa sinensis at the wood which has autumn colouring very similar to the images here.The leaf is also very similar but I wouldn’t like to say for sure this is what you have but it probably is.
