Where did November Go?

It's been a crazy month....houseguests...heavy snow...Thanksgiving.  One day I was raking leaves and riding my bike, the next I was shoveling snow and aiding stranded neighbors.  Just looking at the photos on my phone I can hardly believe this all happened within the last month.  Above is one of the sarracenia troughs.  The fall color was delightful on November 2nd.

The Gothic trough behind the garage had a moment on November 3rd.

The yellowwood on November 3rd.

Fothergilla on November 11.   This may be my favorite fall shrub.

Firepit afternoon on November 11th.  

Ilex verticillata on November 17th.  The heavy snow brought down the last of the leaves from the maple in the back yard.

Miscanthus going to seed November 24th.

Mossy hypertufa bench today.
