Back to back gardening

It's just two weeks until the shortest day, and the gardening year will start a few days later as the hamamellis mollis breaks into flower. But this year still has a little further to go. The copper beech is still carrying most of its canopy, and the Sorbus hupehensis is a brilliant orange, prettily offset with white berries. It looks lovely in the first sun we've seen for a few days. Add to that the evergreens, grasses, mahonia, jasmine and cyclamen and there's plenty going on. I think having something of interest all year round is the thing I'm most pleased with in this garden.
