When I first began gardening about 10 years ago, I always looked forward to Spring; however, now I believe that Fall is my favorite season. I love the cool, crisp mornings, the leaves turning yellow,red and gold, and dividing and transplanting one of my favorite perennials, the daylily. I also enjoy the wildflowers in the woods this time of the year. I must admit that I do not recognize them by their scientific names, but they do give this gardener pleasure with their small flowers blowing in the breeze and the rich purple berries that are wonderful for flower arrangements. And there is also the beautiful walnut tree with its' rich black bark and big green shells that cover the nut. But be careful when touching the green shell; it will stain your hands for quite a while. So take a walk in the woods before the days of winter are here and enjoy the beauty of the Fall.
