Sorry if there is another Autumn colour thread.
There are so many different ways to search (fall, trees, color, Autumn, photo etc) that I just gave up. Naughty.
So here's just a bit of my Autumn for you.
Two pics of my Great Aunt Alice's vine, transplanted years and years ago. Certainly before Nanny died, because she killed off the original with secateurs, thinking it was a weed. It was a standing joke between me & my bro; we thought she did it on purpose, not being a kindly woman or a gardening woman.
Anyway. It grew well in her south-facing garden, but the transplant did not do so well in our no-idea-which-way-it-faces-but-it's-in-shade-90%-of-the-day-even-in-summer garden.
Still, it has produced sharp but edible grapes for about five years now. I mean you wouldn't eat them for pleasure, but to pick a grape in England, in a shady spot, it's worth your mouth looking like a cat's bum for a second.
And I love the look of them. Reminds me of the time I spend in France. Just less homesick and less Puy-de-Dome.
