24.01.2022 I have planted some new bottle brush trees to replace the ones I sadly lost in the drought last year. I have put up some screens as a bit of a deterrent to keep people out until the trees grow up and fill in the space. The screens have been decorated with some cute little bees and bright yellow flowers
