March Rains

Well, the seasons are changing and the winds are up, along with everyone I know having hay fever and itchy eyes.

But seeing we're finally getting rain - after the driest Summer we've had in a very long time - my garden is starting to look lovely.

However, my Moch Orange hasn't flowered much, which is something it hasn't done in around 5 years - not since about 2015 or so when we last had a really dry Summer and a freezing cold Winter (gee, sounds familiar doesn't it?). And seeing how long and cold the Winter has been in America, I'm thinkin' we might be in for a cold snap here in Australia again.

Well, my garden is still looking lovely and I'm looking at picking up some potting mix over the next few months and a taller, sturdier pot for for my Draceana plant. This Winter, I'm pulling both the pots in from out the front and putting in more white stones to plump up the garden out there. It'll look better and keep the weeds away - well, let's hope! - and then I'll be putting other plants into those pots I've got into the back yard (which I'll have emptied to take out the back). 

Then, I'll get some small square pavers for the little area in the garden path area I never got finished in near the Tahitian Lime Tree and near the fence - just to finish it up. I'll need to seed the lawn again seeing what the horrible heat did to my lawn; which was kill it off completely! 

Then? Well, seeing it's all just maintenance, I'll kick back and watch it grow. How's your garden going?
