Well that's pretty much my flower season over. Already getting ready for the coming spring/summer. Hopefully I'll be home a bit more next season to share some of these beauties and some new ones too. See you on the flip side💐💐💐.

Trying to figure out a name for this one. I have been growing her for about 4 years, from my own seed. So any suggestions for a name to throw in the box?

Pop into town hall today, the WW Garden club show is on and only a $2 entry fee. Open between 12 to 4.30pm today. This is why I have no flowers for sale today lol.

Bracken ballerina, it's a newbie for me this season and I think I'm in love🩷🩷. Such a lovely suttle shade of pink, waterlily form.

As you'll have notice I haven't had the shed open much this season. Life has been so busy and I feel I've lost my gardening mojo for it this year. I still have flowers though so if you're wanting any, only $20 a bunch, all from my gardens, send me a message and I'm sure I can put some together for you. The shed will still be open at times but just when I have the time.
I've also been getting back into decoupage and have nearly sold out of current stock so need to get a wriggle on and create some more. I'm currently working on a baby keepsake box, a dinner tray and some vases and bowls. Here's a sneak peak at the keepsake box in progress.
