A huge Jaboticaba Harvest is predicted.

We have two large leaf and one small leaf Jaboticaba trees. After some rain and Spring warmth they have burst into flower.

Early November: Pretty and Productive

Jaboticaba fruit.

One of the Jaboticaba is covered in sweet fruit. This was the result of only a minutes picking. We can grow subtropical fruits you won't see in a shop, the fruits being too tender to withstand commercial processing.

Hippeastrum

 These species Hippeastrums hold a bank tight and all pop into flower at once. Soon the Agapanthus will add their blue to the floral mix. The flowers, green fruit and large leaves of a Tamarillo hang over the Hippies. They will provide numerous tomato-like sweet fruit.

Hybrid Hippeastrums

After four years, what do you get when you cross a red and a white Hippeastrum?  A real mix of colours. 

Dwarf Bougainvillea and yellow Coreopsis

The front garden just keeps looking better and better as the heat takes hold in this 'warm temperate', southern hemisphere, climate.
