Mowed after the rain


This was the garden at the same time last year: It's much better now (above)!



And from the front (Oct 2018) -


And I'm feeding a family of magpies - here's two babies:



First red rose flower over the arch + updates

The very first flower on this rose!



The rose, despite being covered in aphids (I'm going to spray them with milk), is beginning to flower in other areas of the arch. It looks great. I'll have to keep the rose fertilizer up to it. Very cloudy day today.

29 Nov 2018: Morning light on the roses




Moved the third pandorea

The third pink pandorea I moved to a tree in the front yard. Think I will get a Queen's Wreath with it.



Two days later, it seems to be ok enough to flower:



I moved it again! To the back garden, and it seems to be ok and growing.



Red hibiscus

Nice one along the front fence.


1 Nov 2019 - Flowering again. Lovely.


Web and diamonds

Saw this pretty web with dew dots on it, hanging on the gate this morning - so pretty.

Wet garden

It has rained for more than a week. Good to have the drought broken. Lovely for the plants. I put all my indoor ones out in the deluge.

This time last year it was raining hard too. When you look at that link, it's amazing to realise how much the garden has grown.
