The Signs of September


The Pear Tree is adorned in her frothy white wedding dress


The Banksia Roses and Jasmine fill the air with a heady fragrance

\

Yet the Pin Oak is still bare...


All six the Asparagus have produced their first spears


New Bird Feeders are being made


The Ladies in Waiting are sunbathing in their bikini's


And The Princes are preparing for exams




I've been spoilt!

Tuesdays are our "East London Days". I wanted to see if I could find some companion seedlings (nasturtians, marigolds, calandulas etc) and not only found a few BUT also some asparagus!!! Now asparagus are very special as they can produce spears for up to 20 years however they take 2 years before the first spears can be harvested. I'll carefully be nurturing them in pots until  we have a permanent bed prepared for them.


I also found some affordable worm-farm-boxes, so I'm smiling broadly :-)
