Kedi-Gato's garden

ooooh, Sis, you have so much colour, much more than me ... don't like you much ... xxxxxxx

My Hydrangea is "drying" now and the Castor Oil plants here are just coming into their glory as it's the winter for them here.

 

Thanks Sis. You'll be able to get some great shots of the Castor Oil Plants to post soon. As to colour, this is about it.

 

Kedi-Gato
you have absolute fabulous plants,the colours are stunning ,and so are all your pictures

 

Thank you Kathy, but compared to all the flowers and colours you still have in your garden so late in the year ...........!

 

These are just about the last few flowering things in the garden now -


marigold -




nasturtium -




some pretty pink roses -




common bistort -




chinese lanterns -

 

Now a bit of greenery -

some leaves of the white grape vine that I bought this year -




an ivy-covered tree stump, with pot on top -




castor oil plant leaves -




London Pride rosette -




and finally, the lemon tree, now moved into the Wintergarten for the winter. Not many leaves but lots of lemons -

 

the flowers still look lovely kedigato, guess they wont last much longer

 

Evening, Sis, these are all beautiful. I am in a hit and miss situation with things because the rain hasn't come. In saying so, we MAY have it tomrorow ... crossed fingers and toes for the land and t'other half has cut off the irrigation in anticipation. :eek:

 

A Pink Beauty -







A yellow rose -





- and a rather spooky pic of the same rose taken just a minute earlier -

 

I love roses, Sis, as you know, and yours are still beautiful ... I bet they live longer than one day like mine. Spooky rose is, well, spooky ... :D

Are you having the frosts yet like the UK?

 

Yes, they do last much longer, but these are now the very last ones this year.

We have had frost several times, but it has warmed up a couple of degrees the past few days.

 

This is the Pink Beauty that I showed further up the page - it refused to stop blooming this year!

 

Kedi,

Lovely roses the yellow rose is supposed to be the English rose

 

The new year is here and so are the first flowers and leaves -


Hellebores -





Lords & Ladies (growing like mad again!) -





This yellow hollyhock bud has been like this for months, it can't make up its mind whether to bloom or not -

 

Love your Helleborus, Sis, and how strange with the Hollyhock! Think the Helle is a 'no goer' for here and I've had no luck the Hollys in the past but do have some wild seeds from Spain? May fling them and some of the wild Lupins from here at the top of the lane so they can settle in now that it's rain season.
