Garden - mid winter

After all the wet, mild weather, I reckon the garden is in a pretty good place. It's looking lovely and green, with the some bright splashes of colour throughout. I think we've got some frosts arriving this weekend though...

Front herb garden with veges mixed in -
lettuce, spring onions, silverbeet and spinach

Lower garden - calendulas brightening things up

My little lemon tree - finally producing abundantly after 3yrs. Needs a good
weed, and those blue lupen are almost ready for digging in.

The chookies! Caramel (on the left) with her lovely bright red, plump comb. She's the layer.
The other two's combs are still pale, dry and shrivelled while they are off the lay.

My plum bursting into blossom.

Love the red of this geranium. I got a little cutting from my
great-aunt about 18mths ago, it's nicely established now.

I found this cute wee dress at an op-shop a few months back as a dress-up for Danielle.
I recall owning one of thee kilt/dresses back in the '70s. She decided she wanted to wear it to school tomorrow.
