Cherries, sweet and juicy.

Flat peaches, looking like a doughnut, sweet and juicy.

Still waiting for these peaches to ripen.

These tomatoes are small in size but super tasty.

This hydrangea has small petals and live amongst the azaleas.

The huge hydrangea bush is on the east side of the house,  with the tall tree fern in the background.

This is the front garden with jacaranda, roses and agapanthus in bloom.

A perfect pink rose

The cosmos and dill with their feathery leaves are sharing a pot.
