summer flowers


The jacaranda tree is dropping its flowers daily so sweeping is futile.  What is left on the tree is still a beautiful sight, adding a bit of colour to an almost green garden.


The agapanthus in blue and white are at their best.  The miniature versions in different part of the inside and outside garden make a bright display for the best part of summer.  I know that the agapanthus is decreed a noxious weed but the problem is easily solved by deadheading before the seed pods form.


These red poppies are a wonderful surprise.  It is really quite late for poppies but I noticed two plants in the box of spring onion and decided to leave them undisturbed.
I am waiting for the petunias to open up, as well as the sunflowers.
