A Christmas Tree in Waiting
Every year for the past several years we have had a living Christmas tree in a pot, taken from Crafty Green Boyfriend's mother's garden and returned there after the festive season. Today we chose this year's tree, though it will be a while before we collect it and bring it home.
It was a lovely day for a wander round the garden. The apple tree is as ever laden with fruit
and the maple looks stunning in its autumn colours
and its leaves make a beautiful carpet when they fall
Wonderful maple leaves. I also like having a Christmas tree from own garden. When I buy one, I use it several years after another until the tree is too big to get inside. I leave it in the garden and start again.
ReplyDeleteThat's lovely. So nice to have a live tree that won't be cast aside. Love seeing those apples.
ReplyDeleteMaples are just marvellous - gorgeous colour here.
