Chameleon Roses

My Father In Law  loves to grown roses from cuttings.... and he gave me one....

Its called Chameleon Rose ......First saw it growing at the Gardens in the Hunter Valley..

In our Garden

My DH loves garden's not grass and everywhere we have plants now. These three flowering plants are all in gardens DH made in our backyard where once was a pool.

The top plant with the pretty lavender coloured flowers is planted in the top gardens near the clothes line and the bird cages.

The Camellia's are near the side fence near the pond which was once the pool area.

The light pink camellia is one of the plants DH got from the council in one of the free plants give aways that we have each year in the local area.
I just love this time of year in the garden with all my Camellia's flowering.

Backyard in Spring.

Finches that my DH breeds and are in the many birdcages we have in our backyard.

Again I have taken a better photo of this Native so you can see the flowers better. The flowers are so tiny but there are heeps on one flower stem.

I have taken a better photo of the Pink Azalea from our back garden. My FIL came over on Friday and I gave him some cuttings of this plant. I hope they take for him but incase they don't I have taken some cutting myself today as this plant is a great grower and has heeps of flowers.

Spring Time

It's Spring Time here is Australia and the weather for today here in the western suburbs is going to be 33c. Just the right weather for our garden so here are some of our plants. This beautiful Azalea was grown by me from a cutting from the plant that grows in our drive way. The Pink Azalea is a wonderful flowering plant and grows into a large plant.

This is one of the many plants that DH has in the garden near his birdcages. The plant is a lovely native that we purchase from the Native Nursery a few years ago. DH loves this plants as it has little suckers and they are great as DH gets new plants to add to his garden

Here is a closer photo of the native plants in the backyard.

The Fishpond that my DH made 3 years ago when he removed the swimming pool as the boys were not using it anymore as they got older.

The pond has a cover beacause when it was first built we lost all the fish as we have a bush park near by and the wild birds had a feast.

Here is a close up of the fish pond and you can see one goldfish
