The Garden

A lazy start to the day until we noticed local social media was reporting a COVID outbreak and the suburb would shortly be going into lockdown. By 11.30AM the local liquor store had sold all its stock and the two supermarkets were out of toilet paper. Our neighbours have two small children. We could hear the screaming, crying and tantrums. I've never heard adults carry on like that! After lunch I erected a sign on the front lawn "Toilet Paper $10 a Roll" :-)

Now to something more serious. Jan appears to be delighted with the progress of her gardens. A wet and cool start to spring as seen rapid growth. She is rather pleased her daffodils are starting to flower and the bluebells won't be far behind.

Daffodils

Bluebells

The Hibiscus along the back fence line have also flowered.

Next year they should be larger.

Jan is particularly pleased with her front cottage garden

Yesterday we bought two more fruit trees which have been planted in the front lawn.

Dwarf Avocado

A second Mulberry

I’m pleased Jan enjoys gardening otherwise I would have planted the entire area in concrete
