Thank you everyone for sharing your plants and fallishness. The winner is.... Cheryl M! I have contacted her and await her response.
She wins a skein in the color of her choice of Yummy 2-ply Sock yarn and a Martina Behm pattern in Miss Winkle!
Also, I forgot to include this picture in my blog post the other day. I saw this shrubby plant on the edge of our driveway and have never noticed it before. What the heck is it??
The balls are made up of very pointy points/things. What is it and how/who could ever eat the fruit?? As in what animals? Or is it a way to keep anything from eating them? I would love for someone to tell me what it is.
Have a wonderful Labor Day!

chestnut tree
I don’t know but it looks like the one I got for free from the Arbor Society at a craft show. We can’t figure out what it is either. It’s not Sweet gum because the leaves are five pointy ones together on that tree and the sticky balls on it are sharper. Our tree also has the alternating leaves down the branch with each leaf having a curliness around the edging.
Sweet gum trees have beautiful 5-pointed star-shaped leaves. Chestnut of some kind.
