Whilst staying with Shannon and her family in Tamworth, northern New South Wales, a few weeks ago, the evening sky turned on a performance of its own. Each time we have been there we've witnessed wonderful cloud formations all around.

Look what happens when it rains,...
... the garden comes alive again!
Pink Tecoma creeper.
Self-sown Silver Birch seedlings growing in the pathway. Their roots are well-protected below the bricks and they never wilted throughout the summer. There's about 40 of them in a few metres of pathway. It will be fun trying to extract them when they become dormant.
Cotinus Smoke Bush reaching for the sky. These shrubs grow around two metres in a season - all of which will be pruned off in the early winter.
Mixed Guara and Parsley
Not sure why our Crepe Myrtle is still only in bud whilst they have been flowering in other places for at least two months.
