Autumn Table Top
#1

Physalis alkekengi - the chinese lantern provides an attractive feature to the Autumn and Winter garden.
It spreads readily but can easily be kept in it's alloted space by the use of the spade. Alternatively plant within a sunken container of a size suited to the required spread.

Lovely detail. My mother used to grow these in her garden and use them in some of her Christmas decorations. A pretty plant and your pictures do it justice.

Good exposure and well composed. I like your shots Plantsman Smile. I need to get the macro lens out and practice...

Kind regards
Rolf

In photography, the smallest thing can be a great subject. The little human detail can become a leitmotiv.

Thanks all -
As you say Jane, the lanterns would look superb in a dried flower arrangement.

Not 1:1 Rolf but certainly close ups - Yes, looking forward to any macro shots you care to take and post.

No problem with this one Ed, but here are some real crazy names in the botanical world.
