    7th October 2020 and my maples are either turning to Autumn colours, or have new Spring like growth or the leaves are just ready to drop. Such a strange year.
    But what a transformation on my Oshu Shidare since my last posting. So vibrant !!!

    15th October 2020and my Oshu Shidare now has those very deep pinkish reds that I exoe t at this time of the year. Not the glaring reds of others, but just as pleasing IMO.

    Took this the next morning as the raindrops looked so pretty. And IMO brightened my Oshu Shidare even more.

    4th November 2020 and the first frost of this Autumn has arrived, so with the few left that have got leaves in my garden, here is my Oshu Shidare.

    22nd April 2021 and my first posting of the year of my Oshu Shidare. A very wet start to the day after yet another overnight frost, but my spraying has been effective. Well about 97%, so I'm very pleased.

    27th April 2021 and after the messages about the frosts here in Southern England, I wanted to show how the spraying twice a day has helped.

    21st July 2021 and my Oshu shidare is turning already. Pretty, but this is heat stress. I will enjoy whilst I can.
