You know how it is, one moment there you are looking up at your singular quince.....
The next moment you are wondering where it has gone - quince down!
There is no point in crying over fallen quince. The wildlife in the garden will have enjoyed it and that is a good enough thought for me.
So I move on, focussing on the now rather than what was
Autumn is starting to make itself known. Quince Major has a ripple of yellow.
I love how the quince tree leaves embrace autumn. The yellow of the leaves and the fantastic red of the stems.
Autumn creeps through the leaves giving a new aspect to them.
The quince trees, irrespective of whether they fruit or not, are a good addition to the autumn garden.
Quince Minor is also starting to turn. Minor has had a much better year this year, he has been far healthier so I am hoping this bodes well for next year. Time will tell.
Thanks as ever to Squirrelbasket, the guardian of the followed trees.
