ruweiss:
This enormous Pyracantha coccineus grows in front of a house in
our neighbourhood, a fine sight with so many berries. Birds will
love it in the winter.
Aster ericoides "Snow Flurry" with many small flowers. We saw
this plant at first in the Botanical Garden of Brno, it is still rather
unknown in our region and had to wait a long time until we could
obtain it.

Leena:
Some Colchicums from today.
'Neptun'
'Autumn Herald'
C.autumnale 'Album'
'Herbstkugel', this has very unique shape of the flower among my Colchicums, and nice pale colour. :)

Stefan B.:
A very interesting collection of Colchicums, Leena :)
They overbloomed very quickly for me because we have an unusually warm and dry autumn... But I expect a few more new additions to bloom in pots.

Colchicum autumnale var. album plenum

ruweiss:
Leena and Stefan,
Beautiful Colchicums, thank you for showing

Quite an amazing sight this Pyracantha Rudi! It must be a form with yellow fruits. I remember them with orange berries mostly; here in Canada are rarely cultivated, and probably not cold hardy in our region.
Unfortunately our Aster ericoides 'Snow Flurry' has disappeared from most garden centers.
