Falling for Fall in Canada and North America

15/10/2012

It’s been a little quiet on these pages for a few weeks, as we’ve been off on our holidays! With a passion for horticulture running through our veins, the lure of the Autumn spectacular abroad was too much! Two weeks in September/October were spent ‘leaf peeping’ in New England in America and the Quebec and Ontario regions in Canada.

With over 20 different Coreopsis varieties grown here at the nursery, Sharon Pearson (photographer for the publication and a good customer of ours) dropped in and got trigger happy with our stock, resulting in some cracking photos of these
