- jennyssMemberDear @Cath62,
What vibrant colours and beautiful shapes! - jennyssMember@Cora, I hope you can have another go at attaching your garden photos. As you say, gardening is good for the soul!
- Annie_CMember@jennyssAt this time of the year we are well into our Dry Season. November brings our wet season (maybe). Our block has not had a downpour since March and so our garden, in spite of reticulation, is looking sparse.However glory of glories, my orchid house is looking luxurious with lots of growth and flower buds.I have been watching the buds on this orchid for over two weeks. This morning it has burst into flower.Look closely into the centre of each orchid flower to see the very delicate yellow and striking purple hues against the white of the flower.This one I call Fairies Aprons. I like to think that my Garden Fairies (they don't exist, but I like to wish) would wear these while they flit throughout my garden.
- Annie_CMemberOver the last 18 months we have been renovating our bathroom / laundry. In fact building a complete new bathroom, second toilet on the back verandah and a laundry with a second shower. All I wanted was a laundry cupboard!Everything was newly built, replaced or rebuilt. In the mantra of recycle / re-use, I could not bring myself to throw out the original toilet pan.It has become a garden feature.I hope the Moses In The Cradle will eventually fill the area and cascade down over the sides. My garden has "whimsys". This one is down the back garden path tucked away around a bend in the path.
- arpieMemberGorgeous @"Annie C" .... terrific that you can still have lovely flowers xx
My Desert Roses are growing leaves again .....
Sadly, the lovely mini cymbidium my brother gave me after my surgery has 'carked it' and has been removed from my Kitchen Window Sill. It did SO well for so long ....
I do NOT have a green thumb! :( - jennyssMember@"Annie C",
I was hoping to have a peek in your Kimberley garden. Lots of beautiful 'magic' with the white orchid bursting into flower, and the garden fairies busily flitting around the garden in their aprons.
