I have decided to join the blogging craze. I am looking forward to taking a moment to find out a little more about the plants I have been photographing. I hope to explore all aspects of plants, flowers, trees and other garden related topics. Sorry about having to watermark the photos but there are a lot of people using them without permission.

Raspberry Fall Foliage
Red Raspberry
Rubus idaeus
(ROO-bus) (eye-DAY-ee-us)
When I saw this foliage last week it bought Ruby Tuesday to mind. This plant is a pest in the garden but doesn’t bother me when growing out in the wild. The wild berries taste good and the plants offer nice fall foliage color. They can also provide some winter interest with the handsome outlines of the branches. The leaves have medicinal properties.
This is another snapshot from my visit to Manhattan the other night.
See more Ruby Tuesday at Work of the Poet.
