My Garden In Late November
These are some snapshots of my late fall garden. It still has a lot of color.
Gooseberry
November is typically the most rainy month in Western Washington.
But, we shouldn't complain after having almost three rainless months earlier this year .
Love this carpet from the Japanese maple's leaves:
Berberis thunbergii 'Maria' (Gold Barberry):
Blackcurrant:
A very late cleome:
Clematis:
Campanula poscharkyana 'Blue Waterfall' (Serbian Bellflower):
Japanese aralia, my favorite:
Endless Summer Hydrangea:
Japanese maple:
Angel's Blush Hydrangea:
Japanese maple Shindeshojo:
Senecio mandraliscae Blue Finger:
Melianthus and Hardy Fuchsia look pretty summery:
Scilla:
Since it's fall, I'll finish this post with an appropriately yellow blackcurrant:

Empty Bowls
Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!
Today, I 'd like to show you some of the 1,200 bowls that artists of Pierce County, WA, made and sold during the Empty Bowl event (11/18/2012)
to help feed the hungry.
All proceeds go to the Emergency Food Network.
Empty Bowls is an international grassroots effort to fight hunger whose basic premise is simple:
Potters and other craftspeople, educators, students and others create handcrafted bowls that are meant to remind people of all of the empty bowls in the world.
