Trees and Flower

My ginkgo now has no trace of green, and the yellow leaves are starting to fall:
I expect one day soon will be windy and all these leaves will blow away.

My liquidambar is half green and half red:
Strangely it is the southern side of the tree that is colouring, and the northern side that is still green:

In the flower garden,my bethel sage has lots of buds. This is the first one to start opening:
Back in the city they opened about a month earlier, then flowered all through winter. Last year here the flowers started opening sooner than this, but I think the frost knocked the plants back before they really got going.

Your garden is full of colours. ♥ Here, almost all the trees are green all over the year. Enjoy!
