Autumn at its best. It's lovely to see how the autumn colours light up in combination with a touch of frost. Looks like the vegetables have a thin layer of sugar on them. #autumngarden #trialgarden #quercus
An orange glow of the morning sun covers the bare bones of the trial garden. Nobody in sight. It's way easier to focus on details, without the distraction of many colours. A state of rest, but not boring, for me. #trialgarden #maastricht #wintergard
