If a hard freeze arrives as predicted, there will be far fewer plants
flowering on the grounds than are reflected in this report.
Autumn foliage is colorful throughout the grounds.
Mums displays in the Swift Family Garden and the Japanese Garden are showy.
Many roses in the Gladney and Lehmann Rose Gardens are still showy.
The rich colors of autumn paint the walled Moorish garden in the Shoenberg
Temperate House. The fuzzy orange flowers of Lion's ear (Leonotis leonurus)
are complemented by deep red coleus (Solenostemon scuttelariodes 'Oxblood').
The earliest of the camellias are blooming in the Linnean House, giving a
hint of the glory to come this winter. They are accompanied by the sweet
aroma of the Fragrant olive trees (Osmanthus fragrans). Double
impatiens (Impatiens walleriana 'Fiesta Salmon Sunrise') and camellias
(Camellia sasanqua 'Bonanza' and 'Sho-no-sakie') are featured in the
hanging baskets.
