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 .

Hosta‘Blue Jay ’ ( zone 4–8 ) , which is usually a deep blue - green , has turned to gold .
ThisAcerpalmatumvar.dissectum‘Viridis ’ ( Zones 5–9 ) is beautifully color in bull and amber .
TheAcerpalmatumvar.dissectum‘Viridis ’ is by the front threshold , with decorative gourds echoing its strong fall colors .

The yellow color of this maple is simply beautiful .
A littleJapanese mapletree that a booster gave me years ago is so pretty with its various shadowiness of red and orangish .
