more garden

Frangipane is coming along rather well...and smelling very sweet :)



I purchased a table and some chairs from Mark and Judith as they were leaving-time to sort out the front garden a little bit!



Those cuttings from Avantika's garden are very happy next to Mustafa's house:



Planted some flowers from the pots/seeds around the base of the palm trees



The Betz hibiscus also seems to have settled in happily:



I realise I haven't posted many pics of the house...


I (accidentally) nicked off the top of the jasmine when tying it up, but it seems to have improved the top section dramatically!

The what's-it has also finally taken properly:


Some brand new leaves....


This one is ready to be transplated now


The one surviving raspberry plant! Guess it's just not the right climate here



It was a beautiful sunset

Yellow flowers now growing healthily...

The sudden 40 degree day did not agree with some of my plants :(

The totally dead bougainvillae next to the big one.....

is in fact...

back in business! Miracles never cease

The last of a great crop of tomatoes


Courgettes have never had a better time

Several of these monsters seems to have appeared in the last few days! :))

The first harvest
