#foliagefriday getting a great autumnal colour now.

Oooo La la! I like this one @davewrightjoinerygooglemail.co

Gorgeous!! 😍

#macro they might be a bit spikey, but qhat a great plant . Got some little flowers on the way aswell

That’s a beauty. I love mine 😍

It's one of my faves 😍

Dave, yours has grown a lot, what do you feed it?

@Denise16 i only got it in summer last year, but it has got bigger. I just give everything, a good dose of chicken pellets every autumn, and spring, and an occasional feed with tomatoe food. When i remember 🙄

Ok thanks I'll have to get on the case! Mine hasn't grown much but the colour is amazing♥️♥️♥️

I think I’ve got that but a bit darker....must investigate tomorrow it’s lovely 😊

That’s a great colour Dave

This is very pretty. I don't know about the hybrid varieties, but the regular ol' Japanese barberry is extremely invasive

@lesliecole49 ill check up on that leslie thanks. Were hopefully moving next year or so, so itll be someone elses problem then 😁

Will you try to take all your lovely plants with you?

@lesliecole49 it depends where we move to leslie, and whether we get a good offer. I cant see me leaving my tree ferns behind though 😂

I know, they are awesome.

#red certainly makes a change from green.

@andromeda it really stands out andromeda, i might even find a space for another this year 🤗

Pretty lethal barbs in them though 😂 hence the name. When you prune them make sure you pick up every piece and dispose of it

@joanboston thats why i put the trellis around it joan, so little frank doesnt go near it.

Really showing off at the moment.

A stunning colour 💕 Is the mesh to protect Frank or you! I remember when my little girl was learning to ride her bike, yep the only prickly ant in the garden she fell off the bike into and it was one of these 👆,

@carolgs its more for frank carol. Hes always keen to christen new arrivals, either piddling on them or pulling them up 😂

Great colour ❤

Looks great 😊
