Monday morning stroll through the Garden

Sep 26, 2010 by quiltjane Leave a Comment

It has been raining in Brisbane on and off for the last week or so and this morning I woke up to beautiful sunshine. Here are some pictures of the native trees and shrubs in bloom.

My Sage in Flower.

In Brisbane, the three most prominent trees – Silky Oak, Flame Tree and Jacaranda all flower in sequence so there is a blaze of yellow, red and purple from September to December. Jacaranda flowering always heralds the start of November exams for students.
