Glorious weather. No mists, but loads of mellow fruitfulness...largely in the form of gluts of quince and of sweet and succulent dark table grapes.

| Carlo Fedeli, gazing benignly across the leaf-strewn surface of the lily pond |
 |
| A chaotic mess of fallen leaves, most of which look far too pretty to be cleared away... | | |
 |
| The palm-path, snaking beneath the pine trees |
 |
| One of the ancient cypresses, garlanded with parthenocissus in its autumnal glory |
 |
| The church spire, reflected in the pond |
 |
| Hydrangea Quercifolia Alice, showing off |
 |
| a late flowering Crinum Magowanii |
 |
| Crisp, clear skies, and warm sunshine |
 |
| Not all of it looks autumnal...some still looks positively green and lush... |
