Late Summer Flowers

Friday, September 10th 2010

The weather has been alternately sunny and showery today. Autumn colours are starting to show although there are still plants in full flower, such as this Angelica, which Elizabeth photographed by the vole ponds.

In the scrapes the Purple Loosestrife is now competing in colour with the burgundy heads of Common Reed. Their drooping panicles were hung with drops of water from the light showers.

Elsewhere Foxgloves are coming to the end of their season and the trees are beginning their slow march towards winter nakedness.
