Christmas Eve
Christmas is nearly here and I shall not be posting any more until the new year. I wish all my followers a very
Merry Christmas and a happy and healthy New Year. Ken and I will be doing more trips next year and I am looking forward to recording them all on my blog. Here are some photos from my garden.
A sure sign that
Christmas is here. The
Agapanthus are beginning to bloom in my garden. Here is one under the Liquidambar tree in the backyard. Unfortunately, they are considered a weed, but still pretty in gardens. They must be deadheaded before they go to seed!
My native
Hibiscus (Alyogyne huegelii) is starting to flower. I love these beautiful
purple blooms.
A
graptopetalum succulent
called
Tacitus bellus, growing in a pot on my back deck. There are now seven little pink flowers in bloom.
Such a little sweetie!
My beautiful
Jacaranda tree. It has been magnificent this year. The blooms are nearly spent now and it is getting its summer coat of green feathery leaves. It is such a wonderful shade tree in our backyard.
Some
borrowed scenery from next door. Here is a magnificent
Australian Christmas bush blooming its' head off. I have some sprigs from this tree in a vase in my house. Such a sure sign that it is Christmas.

Have a wonderful Christmas. I think of Summer as being about blue flowers. We have zillions of agapanthus and a nice blue hydrangea. The neighbour has the jacaranda.
Thank you Joan Elizabeth. I have enjoyed reading your blog this year. I hope you have a wonderful Christmas also.
The jacaranda is particularly eye catching.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
Thank you William. A Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you too. Thank you for finding my blog and your comments. I'll be back in the New Year.
