winter garden

although our nights are chilly
the days are tropical n sunny
flowers and fruit have arrived early
so pollen fills the air
a local farm is hosting many hives
so pollination is thriving

cheerful daisies

what do you grow in your winter garden?

lovely lavender, note the bamboo stakes as the honey eaters were breaking my bush

grey glum and desperate despair
or make your days sunny fun
plant seeds that reap reward
for we all enjoy sweet honey
we are responsible for our own nectar
weather and others can be fickle

decorative leaves of the ginger plant, use it daily

attend your garden gently with care!
