Also in England (east), one of my favourites, Gaura lindheimeri has
been going on for months and is still looking good, a hardy
Chrysanthemum (Emily, I think), Dahlia 'Bishop of Llandaff', an
Oenothera missouriensis has just thrown up an incredibly fresh-
looking single bloom, Nerine bowdenii, Erigeron karvinskianus
(another one just going on and on), a few last Japanese Anemones,
Schizostylis coccinea and a few last pink Osteospermum blooms stll
looking good and a few stlightly straggly looking Penstemons
That's in addition to berries, crab apples and leaf colours. Best time of year?
