That droplet of water on your broccoli is just awesome!
ReplyDeleteI, too love the Waratah - just have no success growing them though. I was told to plant them and then practically ignore them... what's your thoughts Deb?
In all, a wonderful collection of 'W's - I enjoyed them all :D)
Beautiful Deb, you see things so differently. I mean I see a washing machine and you see another dimension with the inside. The water droplet, well I would probably just see the plant. What ever made you leave an old church house by a river bank? BTW we have been looking at buying land in Tassie, around the East Coast for when DH retires which is not for about 6 years yet. I'm not sure how I feel about it, but your photos certainly make me want to live there. TFS
ReplyDeleteSusan, I have never had any luck with Waratah either. I have tried at my last three homes and this planting is my last ditch effort. Absolutely no more after this. I have also heard to ignore them too and I have tried that and tending with care. I have planted this time into sandy soil, which I have put a little sheep manure and a very light sprinkling of water crystals and lucerne hay as a mulch. Wish me luck!
ReplyDeleteChris: The east coast of Tassy is lovely but water could be an issue if you don't find a block with a permanent supply. Our shack is south east and we are on water tanks only. When it rains it rains heaps so getting enough tanks to capture it when it comes would be the thing. You would love it here, lots of creative peole such as yourself.
