I've never collected seeds from Petunias before and was wondering if anyone can help me by giving some instructions on what to do. I've had a...
Thanks for the seed, Cuatro-gatos. I've decided to give one to Sjoerd's comment as well. I think it most certainly deserves some recognition.
It all looks delicious. I grew up in a town known for its mangoes ... the Bowen mangoes ... and I am their biggest fan. There is an art to...
Chocolate, I don't have a problem getting close to take photos as long as the spider stays still. When they're darting to and fro, I'm not so...
Kay, I've never seen her move very fast but she probably can. Even when we get right up close she just doesn't seem to care and is quite happy to...
Thanks Cherylad. I've grown Gazanias for so long now that I do rather take them for granted and perhaps don't appreciate them as I should. They...
G'day Linda. Welcome. I'm still a bit of a newcomer and so far I've thoroughly enjoyed my time here, so I'm sure you will too. I'm downunder...
Carolyn, I'm not a big fan of the summers up here in the north. They're horrid, even with air-con! Of course I'd probably complain about your...
Eileen, although it looks quite horrid it's not harmful. I'm happy to leave them alone and let them get on with their thing. Luckily for me,...
Oh great story, Sjoerd! I was laughing out loud! Fancy asking ... Should I put the billie on before dealing with the spider? How priceless!!!...
G'day Marlingardener. Yes that is one of the fabulous things about the site. It really opens our eyes to how different our conditions and...
It is lovely with its variegated foliage isn't it, Cayuga Morning. It's the only Nasturtium I bother with these days.
Hi Netty. The end of Autumn, into Winter and onto Spring is the best time for annuals here in my corner of Australia. The summers are just too...
To paraphrase Mick Dundee from the movie Crocodile Dundee ... an Aussie character we all rather despise I must add, but anyhoo! ... to paraphrase...
So many beautiful blooms. Your garden must be looking an absolute picture. I just adore the dark Poppy and that patch of Daisies! So many of...
I think I could beat you hands down when it comes to having BIG spiders in the garden. Here in the tropics we get some almighty huge ones. You...
Eileen, we're lucky here in that our gardens don't ever really die back or die down. We can have year-round colour and I just love having annuals...
Thanks Sjoerd. I don't have as many potted annuals and perennials on show this year as I did last year, but I'm pleased with the ones I have....
It's the middle of our last winter month here in Australia. In my north-eastern spot, Winter is very very mild and my favourite time of the year....
I remember lying on the grass looking up at the clouds and searching for shapes. I do that with my grandchildren when they visit and it's always...
