It All Begins Again
I think I've let this hardenbergia
run amuck!
It's climbed half way up the acacia behind it and I think I'm going to have
to
take a bit of drastic action
The little spinebills have been
enjoying the flowers on this eremophila
A couple of years ago this guichenotia
was looking decidely frost bitten
but with a bit of a snip here and there it has survived the winter well so
far,
but here in the valley we do get some quite harsh frosts right up to October
so I'm keeping my fingers crossed
The tatty mess you can see to the
left of the piece of timber edging is part of a
self sown tomato plant from which I've harvested buckets of fruit for weeks
and weeks.
It stretches from the mudbrick wall, then travels across what is supposed
to be a path
and has gone down into the pond on the left of the photo.
Picking those tomatoes was not easy!
.......and here comes the ornamental
grape vine!
