Our First Banksia…

Banksia’s are probably my real love affair when it comes to flowering Australian natives.

And while I have two varieties in the garden, with more on the way, neither have flowered until now.

This is banksia ericifolia. Common name: Heath Banksia

Gorgeous Browallia

This Browallia started flowering in spring last year and hasn’t stopped. There are no signs

of it slowing down either.

One very happy bed

While most of our garden is winding down for the winter there are a few little glowing spots if you take your time to find them.

This bed with it’s Mother-in-law Tongues, Exhibition Border and Yellow Sedum are happily displaying their foliage colours.

Autumn Colours

All our deciduous trees are finally changing colour and shedding their leaves.

It’s always wonderful to watch our Silver Birch moult before winter and then put it all back on in spring.

Variegated Cumquat

Autumn is the season when most citrus plants begin to ripen. Our variegated cumquats, Eureka lemons and

Tahitian limes are all maturing nicely.

Identification please?

I have this plant growing in my garden which I bought because I really loved the flowers and berries that it

produced (although inedible) but I lost the tags and have no idea what it is. Any ideas?
