The diminutive, shy guys that take a bit of hunting to locate and appreciate? Except for the Callistem pods which are fairly prominent and otherwordly. I think we'll need our umbrellas and boots this weekend. At least it's not cold. Hi Megan~~ Don’t you just love the unsung heroes of the garden?

Are the hops and the callistemon in your garden? I do hope my callistemon looks like that someday! Thanks for sharing the beautiful photographs. Maybe you'll have more next week if you get to be in the garden this weekend....hope so! All very good reasons to love the fall garden, you are correct.

I had one as well and a few folks around the country have commented on my post about it being a good year for quince and that they got some fruit as well. I think it is weird they fruited but it was nice. I love that bottlebrush flower remains. I don't have one here but would like one now:) I do have the hops vine (a new addition). I hope it grows and gets some flowers. They are all so lovely in the fall too. Hey you got a fruit too!
