So pretty! The colours varying from pastel pink to vivid red. You have obviously work very hard and it shows. There is a lot of love in your home. I had to laugh at your black top comment as I wear black for work too, perhaps I should take a leaf out of your book and add a splash of colour too. :)<br /><br /><br />These pictures are just so beautiful, they remind me of those beautiful English gardens where ladies sit and drink tea out of a pretty china cup - a lot more appealing than coffee in a jar.Serenity Bloomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17057081868344498497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4172003914969783059.post-33168087485991578512013-10-10T10:16:07.162+11:002013-10-10T10:16:07.162+11:00hello becs (and welcome, i think, to dig in?) - ye...hello becs (and welcome, i think, to dig in?) - yes, it is, and isn't t so pretty? so delicately coloured. one got jumped on my a neighbourhood dog or wallaby, but it is still a picture of prettiness. <br />i have a dark purple one too which is going to seed already, so i shall be collecting the seeds to see if they grow 'true" (or revert back to something edible and not so ornamental).e / dig in hobarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03448702578845994922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4172003914969783059.post-3172875484724020552013-10-09T09:30:45.259+11:002013-10-09T09:30:45.259+11:00How gorgeous is that ornamental kale (that is what...How gorgeous is that ornamental kale (that is what the first pic up there is of isn't it?!) - I think I might need to plant some of that in my garden!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04754131452967165436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4172003914969783059.post-72363795172469764962013-10-08T09:13:43.507+11:002013-10-08T09:13:43.507+11:00thank you alex. banksia roses are just like large ...thank you alex. banksia roses are just like large blossomy clouds, aren't they? i agree - a real treat!e / dig in hobarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03448702578845994922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4172003914969783059.post-25479858605996801872013-10-08T09:12:28.572+11:002013-10-08T09:12:28.572+11:00thank you lizzy! it's such a wonderful time of...thank you lizzy! it's such a wonderful time of the year in the garden.e / dig in hobarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03448702578845994922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4172003914969783059.post-80618676066422079162013-10-08T09:11:42.857+11:002013-10-08T09:11:42.857+11:00thanks jacqui. my pics don't really do it just...thanks jacqui. my pics don't really do it justice but it's too pretty not to share!e / dig in hobarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03448702578845994922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4172003914969783059.post-40844501891210048112013-10-07T19:12:12.688+11:002013-10-07T19:12:12.688+11:00Love it, thanks for giving us a peek of the rest o...Love it, thanks for giving us a peek of the rest of the garden.
