Shishigashira leaving it a bit late.

It's meant to display its phenomenal autumn gold in autumn and there's only 2 weeks to go until winter here in Australia and it has only just started to change. I'd better not blink or I'll miss it . It's 10 years old and one of my pride and joys.

It's lovely! I can't grow those here, it is far too chalky

It just needs a little more cold. Ours frequently don't change until late December or early January.
Tetters, they do great in large pots. Especially the dwarfer varieties.
