September I’ve got flowers on my mind.
When I look at my September photos, I feel my life this month has been a little boring. But never mind. It is as it is. I hope my readers like flowers.
Spring has sprung in my part of the world.
The plants are in a whirl as their buds begin to unfurl.
Blossom is in – whether it be tumbling down or growing up.
Pinks and purple are all the rage.
Not to be outdone by orange and red.
Other parts of the city are a sea of yellow. A harbinger of sunnier times to follow.
I cannot resist the cinnamon wattle.
Still some hesitate; a little uncertain.
While for others it is time to get naked.
Every month Su Leslie from Zimmerbitch hosts a monthly photo challenge, The Changing Seasons. Click on the link to find out how to participate in the September Challenge.
Kind Regards
Tracy

That cinnamon Wattle is very interesting, I don’t think I’ve seen anything like it. Certainly not around here.

It was at the ANBG, Jane. I don’t we have anything that fancy in our local area. 🙂
Did I miss any of recent garden posts from you, Jane? I’ve been keeping an eye out. My reader is playing up…. Must be lots happening up your way.

There is, but I haven’t posted anything for a couple of weeks. Have been a bit busy with visitors etc and I’ve got a bit behind. It’s nice to be missed, thanks, Tracy!

The trailing hardenbergia was especially interesting. I’m only familiar with the plant from seeing photos and I’ve seen small plants for sale over here. I love its habit and how it gets covered in those beautiful, colourful flowers!

I love the hardenbergia too, Liz. I have been singularly unsuccessful in growing it in my garden. It seems to like growing under and near Eucalypts.

It is. The wattle was so slow this year but it was worth waiting for because it put on a fabulous show.

Some flowers have been slow here too. Went to Le Grande National Park in Esperance the other week and felt I was about three weeks too early.

Wonderful photos. What is that last tree?

Now that is testing me. My brains trust thinks it may be Eucalyptus viminalis (Ribbon or Manna Gum), but we are only guessing.

The tree in the last photo….!! Our crape myrtle trees here shed their bark, but nothing like this tree. It is gorgeous, Tracy.

Lois, I’ve got six crape myrtles (or crepe myrtles as we call them here) in my yard. I love how they shed their bark. Our Eucalypts can get a bit messy, but they do look beautiful.
