The grass beds have a few interesting features now and then.

The fern has been cut back today as it was starting to go brown and ready for winter.

Although there's a lot of green in the garden, there is also a splash of colour here and there.

It was a lovely sunny winter day.

I've never seen so many berries on this bush before.

There's plenty of ivy around. Some where we want it and some where we don't!

We usually have a couple of "snowberries" but I've not seen them cluster like this before.

This little skimmia japonica is hidden by the acers most of the year but comes into its own in Winter.

The last of the roses in the back garden.

From pale pink to brown. I generally leave the sedum heads until the new rosettes are showing through in the Spring.

The heuchera leaves also add a bit of colour.

This viburnum seems to flower most of the year round.

The winter jasmine is in full bloom.

These look good for future squirrel food.

Red cornus in both front and back gardens.

The pampas showed off the lovely blue sky we enjoyed today.

Lots of bright acid green colour from the cornus as well.

This cornus is taking over the front garden.

These chrysanthemums are fading but still lovely and fluffy looking at the moment.
