Looking good now
The Garden's swamp cypress have turned a beautiful fox-fur russet. They grow directly from the Lake bed, and the copper cones reflected in the water and pressed against blue-grey autumn skies are a magical sight.

Sorbus alnifolia

This lovely Korean mountain ash is grown as a specimen in the Autumn Garden. The leaves are long gone, leaving behind corymbose heads of peach coloured elliptical fruits threaded onto coral pink stems.
