Don’t get me wrong, I love both of the trees out in front of the house that give such wonderful privacy for the porch but we’re now at the point of that year that privacy ends up going into the bin in spectacular fashion.

Patience and Fortitude (from left to right) certainly make the last of having leaves until the Spring a wonder to behold but Fortitude is definitely the flashier of the two when it comes to rocking those gorgeous red leaves before they become a huge red carpet in what appears to be record time!
