Heptacodium Week

In Week 2009/41, October's storms and drizzle are closing in, and only the Aster offers a new display of colour. Eupatorium is still going strong, but Lavatera has long ago finished its run, and the bright red seems to be fading out of the Sedum. Helptacodium is already looking ragged again in the wind and rain, after blooming about two weeks ago.
