Geranium

Wow, what a beautiful geranium. 
Soft whitish pink outer petals with a shocking pink centre.
In my moment of gardeners madness 
I bought four geraniums from the garden centre....
with absolutely no idea where they would go in the garden.
Mia bella Gardens is 'chocka block' so I have to say it took a few days, 
and a few pots brought out of the storeshed to find homes for them all. 
This geranium is 'Zonal Geranium' - Flower Fairy White splash.




Jade...



My name is Jade.  I am an Indian Ringneck Parrot.
My favourite thing to do is tease the dogs.  I whistle to them to come...
I wolf whistle too. 
I can meow like a cat, say hello, how are you...

I live on my own as I don't really like the girls, they stress me out, then I sulk and I won't talk.   So I am really happy on my own, because I get all the treats and lots of delicious food.

Blue Collection

I just love this blue...and when teamed with white is just divine...
I added a few pieces of aqua glass...
and a stamped art picture in black and white...
I love the detail of French Country style pieces...
I'm very tempted to give the old cabinet this collection sits on a makeover...
distressed white of course.  It's on the 'maybe' list.

Pink Leptospermum

Leptospermum 'Aussie Blossom'.


This is Leptospermum scoparium x Leptospermum flavescens.

Leptospermum scoparium is native to New Zealand and Leptospermum flavescens is widespread along the eastern seaboard of Australia .

A very pretty small shrub that grows to about 1.5 metres tall.
Evergreen, with flowers from late winter to spring.




'Upside Down' Cymbidium Orchid


What a gorgeous Cymbidium orchid this is.  I had it in a pot and when it flowered the flowers were hanging upside down on the spike.  It just didn't look right at all as you just could not appreciate the beauty of the flowers, so now it has been potted into a hanging basket. 
The flower spikes hang down now, and look just perfect.
A lot of my orchids  have no records of names, as they were bought from yard sales, or from garden centres, and had no information attached. 
I've never seen another 'upside down' cymbidium before, so if anyone knows more - please share...
