4 Nov 2019 -  I really need to place this in the ground and out of the pot.


Alba rambling rose



Elephant ears

I think this is what this plant is. I will keep it here for a while to get it established and growing, then perhaps put it in a pot.


15 June, 2019 - New leaf coming- 



8 August, 2019 - 4th leaf


10 Sept, 2019 -  I've been giving it huge amounts of water and that seems to have sparked some new growth.

Gingers planted

Since I saw the profusion of gingers at Bunnings some months ago (see fotos below), I just HAD to buy a couple which were on sale.

I bought a lovely pink and a white.





 This one is an unknown variety, bought at Salvos shop.


I watered them quite liberally after planting them today, so I do hope they flourish.

5 Oct 2019 - The Salvos ginger is doing well - 


11 April 2020 - Look at her now!


These are the beautiful ones I saw at Bunnings:







29 Feb 2020 - Salvos ginger doing well. I love her variegated leaves. The pink one died :-(


Queen Bed

I'm buying this bed.


I sold some floor tiles recently, for $100, so I am glad about that. They were bothering me for some time and finally - gone!



The NBN arrives

Today the guy came to install. He did a good job, and so far, it seems very fast. Apparently, I have 'fibre to the curb', which is the best connection to have, he said.




Winter nights

We've had two nights of 9C - quite cold for us lately. The girls have not been silly, they have cuddled up on my bed! I love it.

Recently, they brought me a very special gift. Hmmm..


17 June 2019 - They're still at it!
