Cuddy Garden Landscapes 5/9
The woodland garden’s always a modest favourite of mine at the Cuddy Gardens. A garden of textures and pawpaw trees in the back right by the tiny shed.
A untagged white Corydalis!
Maybe it reseeded from a hidden tagged specimen elsewhere in the Cuddy Gardens.
Such a tiny tender looking cutie.
Geranium wallichianum ‘Blue Sunrise’
Planted as partial groundcover in part of the Species Magnolia grove area of Cuddy Gardens. Imo it’s more a holographic/iridescent deep purple than blue but ok.
Anenome hupehensis var. japonica
So big, so pretty. A shame getting seeds for them is so difficult; they seem to have trouble ripening before frost cancels the growing season for them.

This is new modest knot garden of Moudry Fountain Grasses (Pennisetum alopecuroides ‘Moudry’).
Could just be because its just one species of grass, or cause its late season but…. I’ll be honest… in my personal opinion it kind of looks scrappy looking. The idea is good and there IS charm to it, but it feels like it could use a bit more work.
Too few ripening seeds in the Magnolia acuminata seedpods, they’re hardly close to ripe enough either in Cuddy Gardens as of this visit/photographing.
Tree propagation ban stays fully applicable on me then >A<

Different views of the same;
The cozy clearing of lawn surrounded by the towering species Magnolias.
And then another side outside of the species Magnolia cove; Eastern Redbud leaves and shedding White Pine Needles are helping welcome in the autumnal touch
Bald Cypress (Taxodium distichum)
A deciduous conifer not unlike the Larches (Larix). Funny how a tree native to the Southeast wetlands of North America can survive/thrive in colder climates like here in a Northeast garden such as Cuddy Gardens up here in Canada.
Tragically the ball-shaped cones aren’t ripe; they seem to ripen closer to November if my estimates are right.

Bald Cypress and American Sycamore giving the most weight to the scenery.
