The aloe vera plants (from my mum's garden originally) are in bloom |
new spring shoots are on the crepe myrtle trees |
The dianellas started flowering this week |
Close up of the dianella...after the flowers come the prettiest blue/purple berries |
On the bromeliads still flowering... |
The New Zealand Christmas bush in flower still.... |
One of my geraniums |
Disease/pest infestation on one of my hibiscus plants; will be pruned, sprayed and given a feed of hibiscus fertilizer ASAP |
I have already posted these flowers on one of my succulents on the blog, but the flowers are still looking beautiful |
The king orchid out near on of the compost bins. It looks after itself (is neglected) and rewards our laziness with beautiful flowers each spring :-) |

Easy to tell you are in the far north Maria! Our garden in Sydney is certainly starting to shoot now that it is warming up but not quite as advanced as your garden... However can almost see the veggies growing but a constant battle to keep the resident possums away - mesh covers over the veggie beds seem to be the only way.
Your garden is just a bit ahead of mine! My crepe myrtle doesn't have a scrap of green on it yet.
lovely pics Maria.xx
Such lovely colours abound in your garden Maria. I'm quite taken with the structure of that gorgeous King Orchid, it's beautiful :D)
Love the geranium colour Maria. In fact all the flowers are just beautiful!
Your garden is doing well and thanks for the reminder of the king orchid, we used to have several in Sydney.
Lucky lucky last to have such a beautiful orchid. I have small dendrobiums but nothing like that cascade. Thanks for joining it. Loved to see how different your Qld garden was compared to mine here in Tas.
Beautiful garden Way ahead of mine at the mo, but with these warmer days we are catching up.
Great photo's Maria but favourite would be the Crepe Mrytle. When I was growing up our old house at Ashgrove had them in the back yard and they really looked amazing when they were out in flower.
