Anyway as a self-employed horticulturalist working in many other peoples gardens I think it is fair to say my garden is in constant need for work. So here it is, my blog that will hopefully get me out in my own garden?
I plan on not only showing you about my little plot but hope to share things that make me squeak with excitement be it a plant, garden or the stuff that is produced and eaten. At the moment I wait with baited breathe for my flowering gums (Corymbia ficifolia 'Summer Beauty' and yes if I have learnt their botanical name I should use it) to pop their caps and become the show piece by the front gutter but here is a bee happily helping him/herself to the very first flowers.
Well as there happens to be a slight break in the rain i best get out there and get on as it were
I squeak with delight on viewing a 'fici'(as I call them) too. I have one out the front of the house courtesy of the Council which has very dark red flowers.
ReplyDeleteI know aren't they cool? My council took out revolting bottle brush (at my request yay) and gave me water-gums! So I thought that just wouldn't do and am now the proud owner of 3 summer beauties, sigh
DeleteAnd I meant to say - I loved your profile picture - it reminds me of how I must look in the garden. I think the best antidote to a week at work (in an office) is to get dirty.
ReplyDeleteAnd how is this! We are both just starting our blogs. Perhaps we are twins separated at birth?
cool always wanted a twin. Loving your blog even got some extra tomatoes this weekend to make that tomato/chilli jam of yours, thanks
