What stunning gateposts these imposing pittosporum create; underplanted with asters, framing ice-blue cornish vinca & Rev Pemberton's candy-pink rose 'Cornelia'. This wonderful overlap of summer and autumn gives a real sense of transition. Close inspection reveals that many of the roses are bearing buds aiming for a grande finale. I wonder if they will out-wit 'Jack Frost'? The reflective 'Tom thumb', intense in it's darkness, is still graced with a lace halo of heucheura flowers & flanked with lime green leaves.
