  1. Beautiful fall colors in your garden and in the neighborhood Carolyn! Serviceberries are favorites of mine. I love Limelight - it's on my must-have list. Your fall garden is looking lovely.

  3. Oh, lovely. I was taking photos of my coral bark Japanese maple, and I thought of your gorgeus 'Autumn Moon'. I tried to think of one more shady spot where I could place one. I'll keep thinking on that. You inspired me to plant so many maples you know.~~Dee

  6. Hi Dee,

    Those Coral Bark maples are so gorgeous they sell themselves. I don't even remember how many I sold at the garden center.

    There's nothing, in my opinion, more beautiful, however, than the Full Moon and Autumn Moon Maple.
