Two Weeks in Autumn Photo Challenge - Day 2 "Autumn Flowers"


September 24, Day 2 Autumn Photo Challenge - "Autumn Flowers"

By this time of the year most of our flowers are beginning to look a bit tired or have disappeared altogether. Not so for the aptly named sedum Autumn Joy. In the summer you get these succulent pale green mounds capped with an almost cauliflower-like bloom. Then with the first cool weather and a bit of rain the "cauliflower" turns into a beautiful bloom cluster that ranges from a purple-pink to the rich burgundy of this photo.

If you'd like to participate in the Two Weeks in Autumn Photo Challenge--and I hope you do--it's simple. Just grab your camera and take a photo of your interpretation of the day's subject. Post on your blog and then leave me a comment so I can visit you and include your link on the player's list below.

  2. We have sedum here too...good thing I didn't opt to use it for today's image. Am hoping to continue with your lovely meme for the whole fortnight.
