14.01.2022 This explains why visitors have been randomly turning up while we are closed ... Google have put us on their map.

13.01.2022 Viburnum Plicatum Tomentosum in bloom. This virburnum has a distinct horizontal branch structure to display its blooms.

13.01.2022 Knock 'em up in an arvo. Something for the birds in the garden.

12.01.2022 First time winning a garden photo competition. The prize is to have this photo of autumn garden as the FB group cover photo for the next 3 months. It was voted most liked by its group members. Just over 5 years in this lovely garden group and thoroughly enjoy their sharing of knowledge and experiences, seeing garden photos and habitual or uncontrolled spending on plants, and occassionally meeting members at garden events, but mostly Bunnings garden centres.

12.01.2022 Still plenty of flowering.

11.01.2022 The Mt Fuji Flowering Double Cherry Blossom (Prunus Shirotae) is blooming a little late like last year.

09.01.2022 The Emasculum Rhododendron is slowly starting to bloom. Few more weeks to go!

09.01.2022 We have just been gifted this large pot of white flowering irises. They will need dividing.

09.01.2022 Water tank now plumbed to a tap and pump. Next to install a water supply pipe and power cable. Also removed the picket fence and gate and reinstalled it further down on the other side of the tank for easier access to the driveway.

08.01.2022 A beautiful sunny morning here with everything leafing up and some flowering.

03.01.2022 What else is in flower at the moment (1 of 2).

03.01.2022 As a number of enhancement projects started prior to Covid-19 are delayed, causing accessing materials (along with not allowing group gatherings), we will not be opening our gardens in October for its annual rhododendron and spring flowering display. Despite opening 13 years, 700 visitors and growing followers.

02.01.2022 This is our 7-day, 6-station irrigation controller purchased a couple of years ago, and is now mounted in the shed. Next is to run 24v control power wires to the primary and secondary water control valves and connect to a water source, and add water pipelines and sprayers. It is able to start a water pump and be controlled by a weather sensor.... It also has backup battery and non-volatile electronic memory if the power fails to hold the programs up to a month.

01.01.2022 Our open garden weekend in October is currently being promoted on screen at the Regent Theatre in Yarram. Thanks to InTarra for the community support.
