September 2013

The signs of Spring are everywhere.  The garden is full of colour.  The natives in the front garden are all flowering.
 As we will be heading overseas in October I have just been adding fertilizer and compost to the vege garden and not worrying too much about planting anything till we return.  The few things I did plant earlier in the year are not doing much but hopefully now that the weather is warming up they will get their acts into gear.

The cyclamens are all looking great and doing well.  So are the azaleas and camellias.

This 'masdevallia' (which flowered in June) has three buds

the first 'dendrobium' flower of the season 

my mauve 'pleione' is the first to flower - still waiting for the cream and the pink

'Helenor'

the azaleas near the back steps

the species daphne is doing well
