Flowering best

Hibiscus hybrid

 What's flowering  best today?
The Hibiscus hybrid, Drunken Sailor and the Ixora are in their best.  The garden is not without flowers and colours.  There are always  flowers to excite the senses on any day throughout the year.  This unique character of our tropical garden needs to be further explored in all ways. However, gardening is not only for the love of flowers.  I enjoy the garden more if more wildlife especially birds and butterflies are attracted to it for shelter, transit places and as food source.  The garden should not only prosper us but also the world of nature. Be happy, be prosperous!

Front Garden Update - July'09

The front garden's fence area is now well covered by the Drunken Sailor (Quisqalis indica). The two Carpentaria palms have passed the ceiling height and the Blood Banana has grown into a respectable clump. One new attraction has been the Hibiscus Hybrid which flowers reguarly in red hues. Below are update photos as at today - 8/7/09.

The Drunken Sailor scrambles for support.
