I caught this image this morning while hanging onto the end of the hose (just won't bloody-well rain!) and thought it a cool contrast: Euphorbia fulgens 'scarlet plume', a winter wonder between April and late September, and Osteospermum, a few weeks of bloom right now in the first spring sunshine. Thought it'd make a nice photo. Regards

| A nice contrast Bill, and the red and whites are going ok at Geelong at the moment(sat afternoon) and its not a bad day-still a cold wind but a bit of sunshine too. It has been a long cold wet winter .I think its been good for the bulbs and hoping for some warmth for the vegies. chas |

| Yeah Chas, it's been a long cold winter here too, even though where I am is almost the sub-tropics. Cold westerly blowing all day today, and dry, gees, I haven't seen rain since I dunno how long; dry's a dead dingo's you know what! On and acre and a half, with new plants scattered here and there, bucketing water and hanging on to the end of the hose bites into your gardening time. Today I planted out a punnet of Imperial lettuce and dug up half the crop of spuds I planted 3 to 4 months ago. Nice crop of 'Dutch Cream' variety, will dig up the rest as we need 'em. Good gardening to you, Chas. |
