Nigel’s Most Favourite Tree

There is a tree that Nigel has proclaimed to be his most favourite tree in the world ….

…… quite possibly the universe, if there are any trees out there.

It’s on the way to nursery and according to Nigel continues to look stunning even in the most intemperate of weather, when even your camera gets all steamed up.

It’s fiery red leaves, he says  make it look like the most  mahoooosive and romantic bonfire he’s ever seen ever.IMG_9511
“But such beauty” he has mused on several occasions “….is sadly only fleeting ” …… it’s beautiful, delicate leaves are falling all too fast like little red shooting stars and almost certainly, when he is next on the nursery run, it will be “bald” …… but at least it will know it was loved!  What is he like?

That is certainly spectacular. Any idea what type of tree it is?

Is it the October Glory Tree I wonder? Young Nige - Nature gives her gifts for free to everyone who opens their eyes to see. How fortunate we are to live in this green and pleasant land when Autumn calls. JantheFan x
