The idle comments of a passionate Australian gardener, whose 'Growing Delight' is sharing the everyday bits'n'pieces with other lovers of gardening, and through photography, the beauty of the Australian landscape.
Hi Alice....how is my Aussie friend?....Your pictures are beautiful...they would make beautiful cards....I make cards, but they have to be photo's by judy....LOL and it's hard to find alot of beautiful around here...I just got over shingles, so I haven't been venturing out much... but almost better, nothing a few advil won't cure....well, it was a nice visit, so stop by Toledo, by way of my blog....judy
The gardens might not be large by some standards, but there's certainly plenty to see, and such fascinating plants! Those huge fan shaped leaves in the 2nd photo are gorgeous, and I love that wierd and wonderful red and yellow star-shaped bloom. That spray of white orchids (do I have that right?) is beautiful too, and the pink in the last photo. It's nice to see you come out from behind the camera too, Ms. Alice :) It looks like a wonderful place to visit. Thanks for sharing your beautiful photos.
Fabulous plants from the tropics...and photos of Alice! Woohoo!
You must have had a wonderful time in the botanic gardens with your camera, because those photos are wonderful. I love the heliconias (parrot beaks) and bromeliads, they're just so bright and cheerful.
Hello, My name is Thomas Marcucci. I live in the northeastern U.S. Your climate provides much more exotic looking plants, their beautiful. I am a publisher for a blog called EverWinter. It's about evergreen care and gardening for winter interest. We are at opposite ends of this hobby when it comes to gardening, but, I believe there is beauty around us no matter what the climate is. the URL is: http://evergreenwinter.blogspot.com. I hope you check it out sometime.
