The ornamental cherry tree that grows next to one corner of our carport has begun its autumn transformation from green to gold. We're seeing a lot of yellow and gold right now in the woods that border the vineyards. The vines themselves are moving from gold to brown. Early achievers.
The ornamental cherry.
We're supposed to have a decent weather week, so I'm hoping that we can get some of our outdoor chores done. I started clearing off the deck yesterday in preparation for winter. That means moving some plants indoors and putting away the furniture. Also, cleaning and covering the grill for the season, a job I don't look forward to, but one that must be done.
I don't like winter prep either and Spring is a long way off when we move things around.
ReplyDeleteIt seems like it was so recently that we were cheering the "opening" of the deck, for warm-weather enjoyment! Whew.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful tree.
ReplyDeleteI did not know cherry trees did that.
ReplyDeleteevelyn, spring does seem a long way off, but it'll be here before we know it.
ReplyDeletejudy, for sure. And we didn't get to use it much this year.
sean, :)
michael, this one does. I don't know about cherry trees in general.
