Autumn Colour

With the evenings getting longer and the nights getting cooler the leaves on the trees are changing colour, some turn yellow others change a wide range of colours from reds / oranges and golden yellow.

This can give a fantastic show in the autumn, so look out as you are out and about this autumn .

There are some good places to visit to see autumn colour one of the best known being Westonbirt in Gloucestershire.

There ares several ornamental trees and shrubs that you can plant in your garden like ornamental cherries (Prunus), viburnum to name a few.

Look out in gardens and woodland in your area to see a free show of colour and maybe plant something in your garden.

Try the woodland trust website to find your nearest wood and go and look at the autumn colours on the trees.
