Just like "everything works" in the spring, color-wise, it all goes in the fall, too, when Ma Nature puts on her last hurrah! :)<br /><br />(And if I didn't already want that viburnum for its scent... I definitely would be putting it on my list for its fall color!)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14395380166485303934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8488599.post-63432496114289659022009-10-23T11:25:38.462-04:002009-10-23T11:25:38.462-04:00It's pretty noisy around here right now with a...It's pretty noisy around here right now with all the loud colors of fall trying to outdo each other in volume. But enjoy it while it lasts--lots of leaves are falling as I write.<br /><br />By the way, once in awhile while cleaning I've run across old papers I wrote in college. I can't bear to throw them away--I can't believe I sounded so smart back then:)Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01384059342847120951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8488599.post-31851695598224970512009-10-23T08:55:13.008-04:002009-10-23T08:55:13.008-04:00The more we understand, the more we marvel.The more we understand, the more we marvel.mss @ Zanthan Gardenshttp://www.zanthan.com/gardens/gardenlog/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8488599.post-28266021884435321402009-10-23T08:34:55.284-04:002009-10-23T08:34:55.284-04:00Before I get started: I'm a HUGE nerd.

You can't say you weren't warned.<br /><br />But I think understanding photosynthesis DOES make us better gardeners -- I appreciate the beauty of an apparently simple leaf all the more when I think of the miraculous complexity of what is going on inside.<br />And: There is another way plants are factories! They're chemical factories!

Of course it's been blowing 40 mph for the last two days so I can't imagine there will be much of it left when the sun finally comes out! Just planted a fothergill this year (a baby) so I'm looking forward to seeing that color in future years!
