   Your gardens are such a sublimely beautiful combination of plants... that all seemed to have agreed that the fall season is when they want to look their best. Is that a red gallardia ( or maybe a helenium like treasures mom suggested) nestling up in amongst the hydrangea in the first picture? Anyway, definitely a match made in heaven. I always enjoy your fall sharings, John...they inspire us all.

   Really interesting use of ornamental grasses. The light through them is just wonderful. Thanks

   Much as I hate to admit it, fall is here. Thanks for your wonderful photos, John.

   Congrats on the book, John, and of course your autumn garden looks great. It's exploding with texture!

   I'm guessing all you had to do was look to your own gardens for inspiration when writing this new book! Congratulations, John! I'm guessing you have a chapter dedicated to texture in the gardens, you do it so well.

    This is why I miss gardening in NJ so much! Beautiful use of grasses, I can imagine the movement when there's a nice breeze.

    Hi John, great fall photos. You inspired me to add more grasses to the landscape and the local bunnies thank you. I've finally moved them to pots out of their reach. The combo in the first photo is especially appealing.

    Cool cool cool. If you're gonna have grass, I believe this is the preference. Thanks for sharing.

    Really like the textures and colors in these photos. This is what makes fall so special and so different from other times of year. And the light in some of these pictures is lovely as well. Thanks so much for sharing these, John.

    John, Nice fall colors and use of textures. Thanks to you and other gardeners in this blog. I am now adding ornamental grasses in my beds. Did a search on your book; it sounds lovely and quite comprehensive. Congratulations on getting it published and available to us.

    Great pictures. What kind of grass is that in the 4th picture? I've never seen it before and I love the seed heads on it.

    Beautiful gardens John. Love the grasses and Amsonia. Such a delight for the eye with your choices of textures and forms. Love to see your book. What is the name of it?
