Sunday Selections was originally brought to us by Kim, of Frogpondsrock, as an ongoing meme where participants could post previously unused photos languishing in their files. Huge thanks to Cie who gave me this wonderful Sunday Selections image.
The meme was then continued by River at Drifting through life. Sadly she has now stepped aside (though she will join us some weeks), and I have accepted the mantle.
The rules are so simple as to be almost non-existent. Post some photos under the title Sunday Selections and link back to me. Clicking on any of the photos will make them embiggen.
I
usually run with a theme. It is still winter here. We have had a grey winter but we have had very little rain (sigh) and our temperatures have been warmer than usual (no frozen bubbles and time is running out). The garden is definitely preparing for spring.
So come wander through the presentable bits of our garden in the early morning with me. I am excited, and so are the birds and insects.
The cymbidium orchid I showed you a few weeks back is still flowering beautifully and there are at least three more (different colours) in bud. There are plenty of other things emerging from the ground or in bloom too.The camellias are starting to flower (and the king parrots and the sulphur crested vandals are plucking the blooms and dropping them to the ground).
Yesterday was the first sunny day in what seems like weeks.
I really like this Japanese iris. It was given to me by a near neighbour who died a few years ago. I think of him each year when the dainty flowers emerge.
We have several grevilleas and the nectar loving birds delight in them.
The goldfish plant blooms for most of the year.
The drift of bluebells we planted over Jazz is thickening up nicely.
I loved the dewdrops bejewelling leaves too.
I hope your week is blooming lovely.
