Hello!! Yesterday I promised flowers! So today instead of rabbiting on about which plants I fed blood and bone to, and my intense watering schedule – I am adding a bit of colour to my post tonight.
I had a very enjoyable hour, buzzing about looking carefully at what was blooming around the yard!
Lets start with the Granny Bonnet
This was so tiny – here is a photo with my grotty gardening hands cluttering up the shot so you can see the scale
Random sweet pea flower I only just noticed I had!
Mere days after mowing, the capeweed and buttercups spring up everwhere
And it looks like some raspberries are in the making
Flower intermission:
Jeff spent all day burning stuff! He cleared heaps of weeds, rubbish, prunings etc from under the macrocarpas. (The massive trees on our property) The chooks were enthusiastic about ‘helping’ and probably got a little smoked.
Anyway – Flowers
The reason we are supposed to fold or hang our clothesSo you are not wearing your outfits completely crumpled!Fuschia. Natures ballerinasForgetmenotHot lips? Butterfly bush??Another teeny tiny flowerHope nobody was put off their brekkie looking at my lack of manicure (Scale photo 🙂 )I have no idea what this one is. It grows as a vine. I call it a black cockatoo flower as the colours match those birds perfectly
Pretty ground coverThese are small but mega-cheerful!
Hope you have enjoyed a virtual stroll about our spring garden!
A happy traveller through life!
Right now living in NW Tasmania with a gorgeous Nurse-Husband, a fool of a Siamese Cat and several chickens.
We love our fairly simple lifestyle of growing a lot of what we eat and enjoying the stunning surrounds of our little patch.

Beautiful! Thank you for my morning “pick-me-up”! I definitely have to incorporate more flowering plants into my garden come Spring!
Thank-you and you’re welcome. I enjoy the flowers scattered about – a lot were here before we bought the place and we are still getting surprise flowers that we didn’t know we had. I am very keen to attract bee’s as well… they need our help these days! Have a lovely day! I am off to bed 🙂
I love looking at your pics!! They warm my soul! Winter will be upon us soon here but enjoying the fall. I think my favorite flowers tend to be the spring because they are a welcomed sight from all the white.
