Foliage on fire

Today Priscilla King is sharing some of the beautiful fall colouring material in her garden .

I live very close to international nautical mile marker # 1 at the entry to the Blue Ridge Parkway in Central Virginia . The fall colors this year have been better than any recent year I can commend ! These are pictures from my own yard and are what I have been looking out at for at least two week . Many leaves have fallen , but there are still many to be see .

The variegatedSolomon ’s seal(Polygonatumodoratum‘Variegatum ’ , Zones 3–8 ) has developed a beautiful gilt tone .
