Little man and I were admiring the blooming tulips along our driveway when we discovered loads of green juicy aphids attacking the poor tulips. They have been planted here along the shady driveway so this welcomed those pesky creatures. My son and I had fun squishing (sounds cruel) the aphids, esp my son.
The centre of the tulip is very pretty so I snapped a picture of it.
The little yellow daffodils at the patch next to my garage are slowly blooming, it's 3rd season.
Below the plum tree are the King Alfred daffodils. They are very tall but not as big and beautiful as I thought they were.
Little man has the habit of putting his hands into his pockets as he walks nowadays. He was enjoying the fluttering white petals of the plum tree as the wind blew and I snapped a shot of him.
Mid-winter, and all the daisies are flowering their heads away.
Calendulas too...
The three cyclamens out of my kitchen window are looking glorious. I love the leaves and the butterfly-like bright flowers.
Finally I divided up the very much neglected evening primrose plants. I threw away a lot and have about 6 pots left. I wonder how they will end up (I mean in terms of look)
The star jasmine plant is growing well on this fence and I cant wait for it to flower. I cant wait to indulge in the killer fragrance they produce.
I have decided to hang my two pots of kalanchoe out of my kitchen window so I can admire their flowering day and night (since I spend so much time spending in front of the window where my sink is!).
This is the pot of kalanchoe which I have propagated successfully. It is blooming beautifully.
Tulips from last year are sprouting up next to the small black gate where my conifer is. This picture shows the left side of the gate. Unfortunately only one is sprouting up from the right side of the gate.
