Walking along a downtown street, I spotted this leaf with raindrops still on it and found it interesting. I also liked the leaf shadow. Sometimes the "ugly" is really beautiful!
The beauty of this red leaf tree caught my eye from a distance.
i liked this portion of the Maple tree leaves still on the branches so much that I framed it.
Thought this might make a nice background for a Thanksgiving card.. .
Loved the changing colors of these.
Found this lonely leaf interesting because of the curled up edges and its shadow.
Even these curled up leaves have a certain beauty.
Beauty demonstrated even in the end of life.
Autumn is beautiful!

Answering your comments: The Sheflera was given to me in 2004 by a friend who moved to Virginia. It was root bound and suffering from Scale. I thought it would surely die. I treated it a few times but held out no hope. That first summer that it was outside, it recovered but didn't grow too much. Last Summer was when it really took off. I repotted it and put another plant at it's base. This summer it grew 2 1/2 feet at the top. I cut that off. I can't contain it if it is too big. So it is 4 years since it was purchased.
I bought a small container of root compound several years ago and so far I have found nothing that won't root if you use it. I've not tried it on the Sheflera.

Lucky you, sleeping in. 8:00 or so is the most I ever manage. I have all my back windows uncovered, just valances at the top. Our back Garden is such a jungle, don't have to worry about anyone seeing in from behind, our fence is locked so no one can get into the back. Anyway, I love all the light coming in. In the morning sometimes if it isn't cloudy, I'll prop pillows beside my head to block the light and sleep later.
I got all my plants in today. Repotted three Peace Lilies. I like the pots that have water wells on bottom to water that way.
