An October Visit to the Garden

Fall is for sure upon us.  A stroll around the property yesterday confirmed that.   Starting with the prolific amount of mushrooms we have growing everywhere.  We have never had mushrooms like we have mushrooms this year!
Much at the back is evergreen, which means that we don;t really get any stunning fall colour; but some colour is better than none.
 Gypsy, of course, adds both colour and texture to the yard as she poses on the fence between a barberry bush and a grape vine.
 The Japanese maple at the front is changing daily, as you can see by the following 2 photos.
 
But what is most exciting is one of my Daphne bushes in the patio garden is blooming and has lots of buds about to open as well.
 Fall is great - despite the rain we have been having!
