Autumn In Botanical Gardens


 

I think you will agree with me that the Botanical Garden is beautiful in autumn, despite the gloomy sky and light rain. On such a day I visited the Gardener's plot in the Botanical Garden. The figure of the gardener immediately caught my eye, he was standing with a shovel, like many of us in our gardens. It’s as if a gardener was wondering: what should he transplant this fall?

 

 

 

 

What is interesting about this plot? It contains perennial plants and herbs that do not require constant care.

I guess I won't be wrong if I say that having beautiful plants that don't require constant care is a dream of many gardeners. In this garden I saw perennial flowers, long-blooming shrubs, tall grasses swaying in the wind.





I also liked the color combinations of the plants - with dark red foliage, ash-colored low shrubs, purple and bright yellow unpretentious flowers. 

When I left this garden plot, I saw that the Gardener was back at work, sowing his garden.

A large sheaf of tall Cortaderia selloana grass greeted me goodbye.

 

 
 Have a nice day!

P.S. photos from my archive.
 
Here is my video 'Villa d'Este'

  1. Hi Nadezda,
    Lovely photos! The plants there looks very nice. Perennials are often easy to take care of. I think Botanical gardens are beautiful from spring to fall. The grasses are impressiv. I wish I could grow them here, but my climate is too cold for them. Have a nice day you too!

    1. Marit, I have tried to grow ornamental grasses in my garden but without success. The winter is too cold for them.

  2. Botanical gardens are always interesting places to visit no matter the season. I think that as we get older the garden remains beautiful and something we want to take care of, but the work gets harder. More perennials is a great idea!

    1. You are right, David, as the years go by, it becomes more difficult to take care of the garden. That is why perennials save the gardener's energy.

  6. Oh, what a wonderful place! A garden like that with different colours, forms and textures is surely interesting all year round.
    We don't have ornamental grasses here but some native ones, growing in a happy spot in big amounts, are beautiful too.

    1. Sara, I agree, ornamental grasses are beautiful, they need warmer spot for growth. I tried growing them in my garden but our winter was too cold for them.

    1. También me gustaron las esculturas de los jardineros haciendo su trabajo habitual, Lola. Probablemente por eso el jardín luce tan hermoso.

  14. Hi Nadezda,
    The gardens are spectacular in autumn, in fact all of nature has a special charm with its yellow, gold and brown tones. Beautiful photographs.
    I loved getting to know the Villa d'Este garden through your beautiful video. How fantastic that avenue with the fountains is. Wonderful garden, thanks for sharing.
    Greetings and hugs from Maria

  15. By 2025 I want to reduce the size of the garden considerably and look for plants that don't require much care, but do they exist? We always end up doing one thing or another in the garden. Have a great week ahead.

  16. Si ya en tus fotografías se ve la belleza botánica de ese jardín, con tu vídeo donde aportas bastantes imágenes de surtidores, fuentes y saltos de agua, se acrecenta mucho más mi deseo de poder visitarlo algún día.
