Here is a pretty, delicate rose. The peach colours last for ages, and all the flowers on this variant have really delicate petal structures. Stunning I say!

Christmas day went off without a hitch, which was really good. DJ was able to see all his cousins and tomorrow we will visit with the great grandparents hopefully. I’m looking forwards to seeing Mums rellies. Of course the food is great too! Hope you had some fun at the very least, and best wishes for the rest of the holiday season.

For those who had to work, well at least you were able to help make days like this possible for others, and you should be proud of this. Thank you

Anyway, be chatting again soon…

This plant is really interesting, aside from taking neat pictures. Leaves (fronds?) all grow at the same level, and form a disk about 1.5 – 2 meters round. Despite this size, its under a meter tall!

I found it in the gardens hothouse complex, along with oodles of other cool stuff. These buildings are looking a bit shabby in places, but the plants are stunningly worthwhile. I suspect that they are often overlooked because no one else was there when I visited.

Its hard to believe that vandals could damage something like this, but it has happened, and the cactus house still shows that a bit…
