Rooftop Garden

Yesterday, when I took some household compost up to the composters on the roof of the Artists' Cooperative where John and I live, I noticed that the rooftop garden was in full Fall mode.
Soon the reflective pool will be frozen over and the boxed trees bare of leaves.
The gazebo won't be used again until the spring.
Our garden of native and alpine plants like this sumach will sleep for another winter. But for now the colours are terrific!

  1. All of a sudden to me this week felt like Autumn had arrived.
    I love the red, orange and yellow leaves!

  2. Same here, Lisa. This week I kept noticing trees in full fall colours. That's what struck me when I went up on our roof to compost. I had to run back up with my camera!
