Watson's is another nursery in our area that does holiday decorations in a big way. I'll save the parade of Christmas decor for a later post but there's still a lot of great autumn treasure to be found.
Pumpkins/gourds/squash at 50% off. Great buys for Thanksgiving decorating and eating.
A great buy on chrysanthemums. These tend to be annuals in my garden.
Love the cheerful and long lasting orange lanterns of Physalis alkekengi. These plants are on sale for 50% off.
Hops were an important crop in the agricultural development of the Puyallup Valley in which Watson's is located. They make an attractive wreath.
Bright red something or other with proteas and pussy willows was an eye catching combination.
Succulents and cacti are still riding the wave of popularity and people are finding all kinds of fun ways to display them.
While I'm mostly a single plant per pot kind of guy, these pumpkin arrangements tug at my heart. They're long lasting and the plants can be reused later.
So lovely and a great holiday plant alternative to poinsettias.
Orchids are interesting flowers but have never been a favorite. If I lived in a tropical climate and could grow them on tree branches, I might have a collection.
What a bright orange color.
No velvet pumpkins this year; these fun velvet mushrooms popped up instead.
Really digging the wreath creations this season.
Ah berberis, soon your colorful leaves will be gone. It was great while it lasted.
Time to start planning for winter color.
After all that season is just around the bend.
I hope you're enjoying autumn and if you're in this region, I hope you weathered the wind and rain storm unscathed.
