Fran's garden - Part 2

15 years ago

As promised, here are more photos of Fran's not-so-secret garden, plus a few house photos.

I apologise that there are no waterfall photos. The waterfall's pump was not turned on, because I wanted the water to be still and reflective while photographing...doh! I regret that decision now, but can assure you the visual and sound effects are lovely. Just imagine the music of trickling water as you view these photos...

LOL, it doesn't matter what you say, Kerry, they won't be happy until they see a waterfall! Maybe you could photoshop one in. ;-)

Love your tropical Giverny, Fran. What's the tree/shrub in pic #6?

I guess #6 is an Eichium...

Hi everyone - All I can add is Wow! Wow! Wow! and I think Fran's little blue bridge is the master touch.

Thanks Kerry for taking the time and putting in the effort so we could all share in this wonderful garden.

Great stuff!

All the best, Nev.

Thanks again everybody and to you Kerry for all your efforts.
Lisa,Shane was right it is an Echium.As you can see the flowers were finished.They were a brilliant blue/purple.
Just to correct a mistake in Fran garden no1.The Dillings are from the far east coast not the north.

I would have a small wager on pic #25 as being an Acacia..maybe..

Shane is right it is a weeping wattle(Acacia)that I have pruned to look like a large bonsai.
