CHRISTMAS SOON

Everything is late this year. But just in time for Christmas there is a nice flush of golden yellow kangaroo paw along the path out to the little lookout over the gully.

And the flannel flowers are at the end of their short life - they go for five years at best, so the stragglers will be pulled out in Autumn. I'll replant more, if not in the large numbers we've been growing. Like a lot of things, you don't really appreciate them till they've gone.
