Come for a spring garden ramble.

  Come in, come for a ramble in our garden. Spring has sprung and the flowers are waiting to greet you.

In we go.

 Meet the first ever success we had with Kangaroo Paw. Our secret?
Go away for 12 weeks and leave them be....

Our tumble down hedge is looking green and luscious.


"Hello Mr Petunia!"



"Hello, pretty pink rose."


"Hi there catmint."


 Er, no idea what this is. So "hello herby looking plant."


This daisy has "relaxed" over the garden bed.



Just waiting to be made into lemon slice. Mmmm.


This happy chappy guards the seedlings.

                                                                                                                       

This is what the little Moerks do in their spare time.




Hope you have enjoyed our little tour.
Do you ever have a little encouraging chat to your garden?

P.S.


Have a ridiculously good day.

  3. Gorgeous Deb. Sure beats the concrete jungle I live in! Stick insect update - released to the wild (herb garden) as leg accidentally broken when putting rubberband back onto container. But..... another one hatched almost immediately... the gift that keeps on giving! A-M xx

  4. Well, I wish that kangaroo paws would grow in Normandy! What a lovely garden you have, how nice to think you can go away for months and still have this waiting for you when you come back!

  5. Hi Deb, what a lovely garden you have. I am not too successful with the Kangaroo paw either. I have one thriving and then one that is dead next to it? Go figure... ;-)

  11. Oh how pretty everything looks. Love those daisies but it all looks so great. It's fun to look at since everything here is dying off for fall and winter.

  12. I love your garden - so rambly and lovely and absolutely gorgeous! After all the rain we've had lately, out native frangipani trees are smothered in blooms, and the fragrance is so strong at night - just beautiful. My mum is a big gardener, so I'm going to show her all the pics of your lovely garden - she'll love them as much as I do! K xx

  16. Looks good Deb, our lemon tree is still little - if you ever have any spares.....
    Is the mystery herb Sage? or some type of salvia? You have a great day too :)

  17. Your garden looks beautiful!! Love the kangaroo paws. I agree with ZippyZippy above - I think your unknown herby plant might be sage...

  18. Your garden is lovely. I agree the herb looks like sage to me, but I have never kept it long enough to flower!.
