This year Spring is not being as flirtaceous/capricious as she often is. A few warm days, a few chilly days, but the signs are good that she is settling in. And, having said that, we will probably get a vicious cold snap.Elephant's Childhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06650565833097914052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7516733121956849207.post-80465155718741577642014-09-06T16:22:36.322+10:002014-09-06T16:22:36.322+10:00EC, am a cynical old curmudgeon.

Was born and raised in South Australia so, when first arrived here, planted tomatoes in August. It snowed in October.<br /><br />However, please do not let my words deter your joy.<br /><br />Floral blooms are perennial.Davohhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02785126939071213905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7516733121956849207.post-37482778950683313982014-09-06T04:34:57.720+10:002014-09-06T04:34:57.720+10:00Guyana-Gyal: As a young thing I couldn't unde...Guyana-Gyal: As a young thing I couldn't understand how my mother could spend so much time puttering round in the garden.
