The leaves from my maple tree are falling, covering the front walk and making a thick carpet the kids love to drag their feet in, like miniature snow plows pushing crimson and yellow leaves into piles. The growing season is winding down.
There are many plants that excite with textures and colors that are typical of a fall garden. My favoritew are ornamental grasses; they are dramatic with their feathery tops softy a glimmer with effulgent morning light swaying in the breeze.
