Around the Yard




Planted this gorgeous Bougainvillea, hopefully it will grow up & over this old gate that I've put in the garden. 



Water Chestnuts are doing well, they are so much bigger than this already. They seem to grow before your eyes. I've never grown them before. So I'll let your know the end result!



Should be in for a good crop of Lemonade fruit this year. Although the tree is looking very heat stressed the last couple of days. Over 40cdeg & high humidity most days is playing havoc with the garden.
YTD we have only had 1.0ml of rain - not even a teaspoon.



Every other morning I pick my chooks a basket of this.....


they love it......


then they lay me these. I'm so thankful to them.



Not like Mother duck who likes keeping them all for herself.
Thinks there may be some little ducklings  to start this new year.
New Year, New Life

Hope you enjoyed your morning walk around the yard with me. I'm off to have a cup of tea & a piece of cold meatloaf (left overs from last nights dinner yum!)

Your chooks are so lucky to get that basket of greenery, I can almost smell the mint right now!!

Love the old gate in your garden, I'm sure your Bouganvillia will take over in no time.
