This garden was created last August by our American HelpXers, Teo and Eric, under the guidance of Julia. It's coming along very well (compare with a pic of it after it was first created - see September 2010 archive). I've planted in a lot of kangaroo paws (with more to come) so it should look quite good once their flowers start reaching up towards the sky.
This is going to be a rainforest 'garden' running behind the shed. It's not looking its best at the moment, needs some maintenance but that's a job for our next Helpers.
One of the trees growing very rapidly is this pink euodia. We had one back in Newcastle and they are a beautiful tree, especially in flower as they are covered in masses of pink flowers that are highly attractive to butterflies.
However, just to show that not everything grows well on our place. This is an avocado tree that was one of the very first trees I planted when I first moved in back in September 2008. It has done nothing! I'm going to transplant it to see if it does any better in a different locale.
