Dee – aawwww! Thanks, you’re too kind. Re: the ‘Fireglow’ maple, I’m so glad its fall colour is amazing, because when I first bought it, it was like this year-round. Later, only its new growth glowed like, well, fire, and I was disappointed. But the fall colour certainly is WOW!

Kim – Northern England is beautiful; I have spent some time there. I think the climate is actually quite similar to Vancouver. I hope your boyfriend enjoys his trip! Try to join him if you can :)

I found your blog via Delightful blogs. I live in Northern England, we also don’t really get such bright colours in the Autumn, though it is beautiful here. Vancouver looks like a great place…my boyfriend is due to spend some time there next year and I’m wishing I could visit too!I will read this again, happy gardening!

I was doing some research for an article this week and learned this. I didn’t know it before. The photos are wonderful. I especially love seeing your sweet baby. The ‘Fireglow’ Japanese maple is wonderful too, but can’t outshine your baby’s smile.~~Dee

Nawlins – Thanks! No fall colour in New Orleans? At least you can grow those gorgeous bromeliads!
