Deciduous conifers at Wakehurst Place

Tomorrow the winds and rain may strip these trees of their needles and colours.  So I thought to share these pictures with you.  Above is the European larch.
Click on any picture to enlarge it.
Quite different from our European larch is....

Above is a larch from Japan.

It is not just the larch family of conifers that are deciduous, above is the Dawn Redwood.

The most spectacular colour is the Swamp cypress


Here is another specimen.  Enjoy!
