Blossoms on the block

©2018 Barry Smith - One of Graham's beauties

I didn't get time to walk Treehaven Way this morning as Fiona and I were on taxi duty taking Fiona's dad Graham to the airport. It seems we are playing tag in regard to the cottage in Scotland. Graham is off to experience a Scottish winter in the cottage. I'm glad we upgraded the heating.

Since we have been back quite a bit of energy has gone into getting control of the bigger veggie garden and the rest of the block - we must have good soil as the weeds grew heaps. The upside is that the flowers on the block also grew heaps including some of Graham's orchids that reside at our place and our crucifix orchids.

So below is a bit of a mixed bag of the blossoms on the block including quite a few of our crucifix orchids.
