monthly What's looking good in October 2025

Love it!! Thanks Pac..

 

Maples along the dog walk.




The chicken yard maples

 

I call this one, drizzle on the Euphorbia

 

Ah Zigs I have that euphorbia and it can be a bit invasive in my zone. The tiny leaves have tiny hairs on them to protect the leaves .

The lawns have greened up and need mowing. Color is slowly coming along.
Soon the maples will be the stars of the fall season show.

 

Tetters gave me the Euphorbia to "get rid of" Pac

Found this flower

 

Zigs—That Clem is charming. Does that creature have a name?

 

Colchicum— this is a double Norwegian variety:


A mushroom variety that I have not seen on our complex before:


I can’t recall the name of this one either:


Ahhh, but these I know— they are a Herfstaster and a Clematis:


Wait for this one…brace yourselves, Holly. Is Christmas just around the corner or something.


Finally, a grondhommel (ground bumblebee) on a herfstaster.:

 

Sjoerd The name for the plant with red round blooms and grey star shaped leaves. Euphorbiaceae -Caster Bean .
Nice display of plants for fall showing.

 

Pac— yes indeed. Thanks for the help.

 

Ta Sjoerd Probably a Montana

Grondhommel is a good name

 

Zigs— I’ve never seen a Montana that colour.

 

Might not be then Sjoerd, just one in the hedge

 

Small leaf sasanqua camellias started blooming.

 

Perky fall color! Oregon's fall colors are a vibrant mix of deciduous tree color is a sharp contrast against the back drop of green evergreen trees and blue skies.
