MAPLES:

I find that it's the weeping maples that are so spectacular at this time of the year. This one is at the entrance to my courtyard with Acer Griseum on the right. Griseum is the Maple with the shedding bark, which adds to it's charm. The garden sign which was made for me at Goomes Forge, Princes Risborough, U. K. reads "Farmers House". For this week I'd like to change it to:- "BLIPPERS WELCOME "
