Plants can have beauty in all seasons and the formation of seeds in the fall is one of my favorite phases. After a cold night earlier this week, several plants got the hint that the growing season is done.
This cluster of seedheads belongs to Brickellia cordifolia, a late summer perennial. I love the colors and the structure of the seedheads and the scattered collection of fallen tree leaves below provides a nice echo of the colors.
As winter approaches, keep a look out for special moments of the season: changing colors, interesting seeds, frost-encrusted plant parts, and other aspects (like bark) that we may not notice in the fullness of the growing seasons. Find your #momentinnature and savor the ever-changing landscape before you.
