Fall Window Box

Yep! It is time to change the planters and window box for Fall. One thing to keep in mind, do you want to water? This has been a dry Fall so, Mother Nature has not been much help in keeping things green or alive. By omitting live plants I have created a maintenance free window box. I trimmed a few Juniper branches and added them for something that appears alive. Then I added two small pumpkins and an old bird house. There was some ivy still growing so, I left it in place.

Fall Color

For a brief time each year the colors are amazing. As an artist, I would love to be able to save color in a bottle. I can imagine holding the intense red leaf of a Burning Bush and having it melt in your hand. I don't think there is a name for every color in my yard.
