Mid-November in London slips into a shimmering last hurrah, as avenues of sycamores and Norway maples wash the city in pale greens, mustard yellows and soft browns. Silver maples, often the finely cut ‘Wieri’, scatter chequered carpets of green-and-white leaves, while field maple flashes butter-yellow along quieter edges. Peek over garden walls to spot exquisite Japanese maples—palmatum and japonicum—glowing in Kyoto Garden at Holland Park. Tree-spotters can roam St James’s, Cannizaro, Syon and Kew for rarities: hornbeam-leaved curiosities, Tatarian surprises, and venerable Japanese specimens. Then lift your gaze to the stately limes: grand Common lime avenues, fluttering Silver and Silver Pendant limes that turn paths into silver-green mosaics, and characterful species from America to Mongolia. Bundle up, slow down, and let London’s trees write November in color.
