This is the entrance of the garden facing south and shaded by big trees.
Here I grow sky blue and pink, tall tropical Salvias and a dark pink Bougainvillea;
In the middle of spring the climber Baumontia grandiflora shows off spectacular bell flowers.
The pond attracts daily visitors, feathered friends come to drink and have a bath. I also have seen a whipsnake, not to be missed with its iridescent colours, to come and have a drink.
Gardenia grandiflora is in full flower now. In front the big leaves of a young tree fern. They seed freely when it is rainy and the soil is moist. A beautiful triangle palm is growing in between the plants and providing some shade.
Daylilies, Agapanthus and many other treasured plants are growing in this terraced area which faces North, and is hot in summer.
The chooks are an inquisitive lot...
Wild, simple china roses are my favourites. This one is growing in my court yard garden near the entrance.
Part of the terraced garden;
I like to grow many different grasses. This one is a very tall one in a deep red colour. The leaves are much broader then the blood grass. The flowers are pink with long soft hair swaying to and fro.
Different blue Salvias are still in full flower;
Two very big Gardenia shrubs are scenting the whole garden.

Believe it or not:
The seed is hope; the flower is joy.
