Autumn at Croome Court
Capability Brown loved his London Plane trees and as you can see they make some good autumn colour. This species of tree is all over Croome and they have the most amazing bark that looks like camouflage. This tree is also very tolerant of pollution, which made it ideal for "The Big Smoke" a disparaging nickname for London after the pea soup fogs, with the Great Smog in 1952, this nickname is still used today.
