Mother Nature must have been high when she decided neon orange and pink would work on the same flower. Somehow though, it actually does. 🙌

There’s something very cool about serving up a meal from your own vege patch. Not a great pic but a delicious feed! 🍅🤤

Greetings from Canberra today. Thought I’d share one of my favourite Aussie trees, the Blueberry Ash. It’s currently in flower. Special.

The cooler weather is upon us here in Sydney. Lovely to see a flowering Chrysolephalum ‘Desert Flame’ in Heathcote today. Silver foliage, papery yellow flowers. 💛

I was getting a bit worried about my strawberries. All leaf, no flowers. A dose of potash and viola! 😍🍓

It’s a scorching 35 degrees Celsius (95 degrees fahrenheit) in Sydney town today. My beefsteak tomatoes are loving it. Me, not so much. 🥵

Meet Callistemon ‘Fluro Burst’. A stunning pink flowering bottlebrush that grows to 1.5m high but less than a metre wide.
Perfect for those narrow spots near pathways. Champion. 🩷

Sword Lily (Crocosmia x crocosmiiflora) is a striking bulbous plant native to France. Sadly it’s an invasive weed here in Australia. It’s highly adaptable and out competes native plants in Aussie bushland. ❌🙅‍♀️

The vibrant purple flowers of Tibouchina ‘Alstonville’. This small tree is hugely popular in Australia, especially for the burst of colour it adds to a dreary Autumn day. 💜

Seems like they appeared overnight. Nothing a little soapy water and a soft toothbrush can’t fix. 🪥

Normally when pruning the trees we need to keep an eye out for birds nests and snakes, however this gorgeous ring-tailed possum decided to make a home in our garden ❤️ #australiangardening #possum #ringtailpossum #australianfauna #gardening #australia #springtime #spring #cute

Bumped into the owner of a house in the Sydney suburb of Marrickville. She planted Olives as street trees so people could help themselves when ripe. Love this so much! 🫒🙌😍

Some pretties to brighten your day. 🌱🌿🌺
We are expecting a little rain to arrive from the tail of Cyclone Alfred. Thought to take these photos before they are ruined/saturated. Rain is badly needed, just the same. #gardeningAU #Australiangardening #gardening
Dahlia flower 'purple ball'. Part open flower still has the golden bud in the centre. It is a burgundy pinkish purple shade. Frangipani flowers, 'Fruit Salad'. Golden yellow centres with bright Relish pink petal tips and edges. It has an aroma similar to fruit salad. Ginger flower, 'Siam Shadow'. The top of the flower stem has large pink petals with brown 'painted' tips. The base of the pink petals has like little green dishes. Tint iris like lillies open in each one. One can be seen here, it is iris purple blue, with yellow streaked throat. There are more tiny lilies yet to open. Dahlia 'Apricot', a pretty delicate orange colour.

This cute little plant is known at kittens tails because the red flowers are soft like a cat's tail.
Acalypha reptans 'Stephie'.
