Today I've been to Ballarat to see my mother, who last night fell and broke her hip. She went into surgery at 3:00pm, and as I write this she is still there, as far as I know.
While in Ballarat I visited a beautiful nursery with a wonderful autumn display.
Rows of ornamental pears for sale:
A section devoted to Japanese maple (Acer palmatum), and carpeted in fallen leaves:
Glowing red Japanese maple:
Delicate Japanese maple "Emerald Lace":
A large Berberis looking stunning, but its thorns are not so inviting.
It is a beautiful nursery, that I will definitely visit again. But right now I'm just wondering when I will hear how Mum is.
PS - I've now heard that she is safely out of surgery and back on the ward.
