That's upon first glance. When you look more closely there's actually quite a bit of beauty, especially in the large, freshly-killed leaves of bananas, cannas, and Colocasia.
The wonderful shades of greenish browns and brownish greens, the new, more vertical lines of the now-limp leaves -- there's so much to enjoy!
I'll take a wider look at the freeze damage in tomorrow's post, but it's hard to get worried about winter's approach when it's back up in the low 70's F now, with no more freezing temperatures forecast for a week or more.

Beautiful, yes, but I'd still rather live without freezes, frosts or any kind of cold weather.
ReplyDeleteThere can definitely be beauty in unexpected places, you just have to look for it...well seen!
ReplyDeleteThere's something kind of refreshing about that first hard freeze...time to clean up and put the garden to bed for another year. And start planning for next year!
ReplyDeleteAwe! Frost is a real gardeners foe! But the colours you show at this time are spectacular.
