Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

Last week, I could feel the nip of Autumn in the air, many of my flowers were going to seed and the last tomatoes were harvested from my front garden but, as I went on my wanders around the neighbourhood, I couldn't help but notice how much beauty there was left to glimpse

Saturday - found in a Ladder front garden. An irresistible mix of red and white unfurling.

 

 

Sunday - that Sunday was a gorgeous, warm day, drawing me outside to spend several hours tidying up the garden, watched over by my last and most glorious sunflower

 

 

 

Monday - my wanderings took me to Frobisher Road where I looked in on Ant's street garden

 

 

Tuesday - a detour to grab a flat white at Blend took me past this pretty in pink front garden. I love these flowers that give early autumn such colour

 

 

Wednesday - a walk down Harringay Passage can be a nature walk in itself. These leaves in their autumn shades were glorious

 

 

Thursday - back down the Harringay Passage in the direction of Umfreville Road and the berries are beautiful

 

 

Friday - Railway Fields is a must in autumn. I was a little late this year so missed the colourful berries and seeds but this little flower demanded my attention

 

 

As I wandered back from Railway Fields down the Passage I found that even in the most untidy planters, a little beauty can shine

Love the pics, LIz (a bit lax on naming all the flowers though....) - I don't recognise the first one or the last three.

Gorgeous pictures,

Stephen. I reckon the first is a dahlia, the last looks like a bergenia, the one before perhaps lantana?

Alison is right about the dahlia and the berginia. I think Friday was just a buddleia very close up. The one I don't know the name of even though I see it everywhere is the pink one (Tuesday). Thursday is rowan berries - well I assumed they were.

They are Japanese anemones. Absolutely beautiful, they seem to grow really well around here (except in my garden...).

Great, yes of course I have seen that lovely buddleia. Not sure Thursday is Rowan though leaves look a bit wrong. http://www.soil-net.com/album/plants/woods_forest/tree%20leaves%20s...

Thanks Liz for the pix of uplifting autumn colour. Red berries are pyracantha, no? And there are loads of the red vine leaves around... Boston Ivy (partenocissus tricuspidata) or Virginia creeper (p. quinquefolia).
Thanks.

Thanks Alison P, the dahlia picture is amazing.

Very nice. Thanks Liz :-D

Gorgeous pictures!

Beautiful Liz. Thanks for sharing x

Great pictures, very uplifting - what camera do you have?

If you page down from the flickr picture it tells you the camera type - in this case an
