Summer Nearly Here

A couple of photos of Aussie native plants from the garden this morning. The yellow one is a tall Anigozanthos (Kangaroo Paw) and the orange one, up about 4 metres high, is a Corymbia just starting to show its beauty with loads more buds ready to open over the next few days. That will end up being a 4 metre spread of orange.

Lots of native flowering trees already out. Glorious time of the year.

Wired day here, no sun and a white sky. Orange being the colour of the moment here are photos of orange kangaroo paw and a bromeliad.

More Aussie natives and last one for this spring. Left to right, top to bottom they are - Syzigium Cascade, Grevillea Loopy Lou, Hibiscus Geranoides and Melaleuca Thymifolia.

I know these florals aren't strange to you, but these florals are so beautiful and strange to me. You folk down under has such interesing floral and fauna. I suppose you might think the same towards us uplanders. lol

You have a beautiful garden OMG Good to see colourful flowers especially when the evenings are dark and miserable here since the clocks changed.

Teapot - thank you.

OK, some days of rain and mottled sun have convinced a number of shrubs/trees to flower, so just one more pic for Spring and this one especially for Lyle!! Grevillea Moonlight with its creamy whit flowers, some 18 centimetres long and up there around 3 to 4 metres high.

Last couple of days here in central Australia were nice but last night and today we had strong winds, thunderstorm for 4-6 hours straight then heavy rain. Almost like we are back to Winter again as it is so cold today.
