Summer and Black Caviar!

Well Summer is here even in Tassie! Hot days, the ground is drying out and the grass is going brown

Still learning about the garden and working out where all the holes are. There are lots!  Still heaps of beautiful little corners of colour though if you go looking. This rose bush is beautiful but about 7 foot high as it climbs up to try and reach the sun!

The grape vine l wrapped around the candelabra has gone mad!

The Agapanthas are looking very healthy. Not my favourite flower at all in fact l quite dislike them really! But they certainly deserve a 10 out of 10 for hardiness and longevity!

Fuchsias are everywhere!

The whole area around here is very rocky! We have not only plenty of rocks that poke above the ground but also vast enormous slabs of it below as well. Its amazing as soon as the moisture starts to disappear out of the soil, the lines get clearly defined where doesn't have rock just below the surface and where does!!!

Oh yes.... and that black mare who just keeps on winning?? She just did it again! 17 out of 17. Apparently she romped it in. She has Royal Ascot in her sights now in the UK. l wonder how she will go?
