Welcome to the National Gallery
of Art sculpture garden
in Washington DC.
I'm Cindy Kaufman,
and I'm the chief
of horticulture.
Fall is one of my favorite times
of year.
When the leaves on the trees
are turning,
and the temperatures are finally
cooling.
White Japanese anemone, Honorine
Jobert, which usually flowers
in September and October
will be your last stand of color
in the summer before the frost
occurs.
Our white re-blooming iris
is a great performer
and can bloom well into December
if planted in a protected area.
Let's look at a couple trees
of interest right now.
Our Washington elms
along Seventh Street
have a brilliant yellow color.
Along with the Kentucky
coffeetrees.
The compact Japanese maple has
a wonderful contrasting color
of burgundy.
Please come to the National
Gallery of Art sculpture garden
and enjoy this change of season.
