Maple yellow




Colinton Dell, by the Water of Leith.


Meanwhile in England the government plans to stop tree planting grants in the period 2014 - 2016. If you think this is the wrong decision, please sign the petition  to ensure grants for tree planting and creating new woods are put in place and maintained during the gap between old and new forestry funding schemes.

Beauty in colour and form!

I've been surprised how slow the leaves have been to fall this year in the light of the storm (which possibly affected us more than you) ...

Hi Caroline, yes I'm amazed how the leaves have stayed so long, we've not had much wind really this autumn though (the storm missed us).

What a beautiful shade of yellow :) good luck with the tree planting grants (there seems to be a lot of regressive policies being implemented throughout the world this year - like the momentum is being lost - not sure what is going on!)
