This time of year the dogberries are BEAUTIFUL. These pops of orangey-red just catch your eye all over town and I keep stopping to try and take photos. I don’t think my iphone is doing them justice – they are just so stunning in real life!
The other name for the Dogberry tree is Mountain Ash. If you believe the folklore, an abundance of dogberries predicts a harsh winter (presumably to help the birds survive). My fingers are crossed that a harsh winter is not looming, but in the meantime I am loving these beautiful trees.
There are four Dogberry trees that line our driveway in the new digs. So pretty and welcoming.
