Seems the new suburbs where the blocks are so small have no room for trees and mostly grey roofs are so boring to look at.<br />I am sure both yours and our summers have extended so far into the year that it has played havoc with the garden and plants are flowering out of season. Over here frangipani usually stop flowering in March but many still have inflos which are showing buds and are still opening. Nobody is complaining as frangipanis are an addiction with many folk here.<br />Thanks for once again showing us such beauty.Mimsiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00249766510078357225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7516733121956849207.post-87431917100856585212016-05-10T21:39:06.504+10:002016-05-10T21:39:06.504+10:00Jonquils are so naughty.
