1. Hopefully seeing flowers on some things that I have grown from seed
2. Walking out one day and finding the crow-bar fairy has planted all the stuff I can't!
3. Walking round the garden under an umbrella because it's raining
4. Buying myself a pair of gumboots because its raining very very very hard |

all of the above, especially the umbrella and gumboots.
BUT I like Autumn best because at least there are 2 cooler months ahead, I don't like the summers we have been getting here lately.

| Agree with Alison and Marion, must a decent rainy season. Haven't seen one for a long time now. And not having to wear three jumpers and a jacket. |

The pair of koalas living in the gum trees at our back door having a baby.
The flowering/fruiting of more of my own plantings.
The wallabies eating the grass again instead of my plants.
Fewer weeds coming up than in previous years.
Oh, yes, and RAIN.

| Hi Melmat, I am eagerly awaiting the coming of the next growing season - many of my plants have been in the clay long enough to put down decent roots, and I believe that I will have an explosion of flowers from my Grevillea, Callistemon, Banksia and, ahem, certain exotics that I wont mention here for fear of reprisals :) About the only thing that I dont have in my garden is roses - horses for courses, but they just dont do it for me. I do look forward to my Bougainvillea and wattle providing colour next Winter, but my thoughts are very much focussed on Spring at the moment. Cheers, Artie |

| Well... I don't want to sound too ungrateful.. but I am actually looking forward to our dry season up here (which has not arrived yet). The temperature is still high and the rain is still around.... although the night temperature has actually started to drop. But, if you live here during the wet season, then you know what I mean.... The plants love it, but hey.... a little bit of cooler weather would not hurt. Regards, Ari :) |

| I'm looking forward to watching my screening of bamboo and heliconias take off so I don't have to see the ghastly house next door. Also can't wait to be able to wake for work and not be in complete darkness then come home in the dark. |

| All the trees bursting into flowers and new leaves, and hoping my bamboo's take off too. And eating all the vegetables that I have just planted. But not looking forward to Summer at all if it is going to be like the last one |
