Autumn colors

As I have mentioned numerous times, most of the trees here in New Zealand are pine so we are lucky to have two ornamental cherry trees in our yard garden to witness the glory of autumn.





Until a couple of weeks ago, the weather didn't seem like autumn at all. 
Some of my flowers and bulbs noticed it, too, like this strawflower...

and this silly hyacinth!

Dunedin Botanic Gardens

We wandered through a few sections of the Dunedin Botanic Gardens but didn't 
see it all. I was thrilled with the roses that we saw.The fuzzy shots are taken in the greenhouses.

color in winter

As I have mentioned before, this winter has been the mildest I have ever seen here. Until last week, I only had a fire in the fireplace twice for heat. 
It's half way to spring but my garden never figured that out. There weren't a lot of blooms (California poppies, phlox mostly), but the picture below shows you how green it has been all this time.


The camellias that usually start blooming in October have been blooming all over Taranaki. This is mine--only two blooms, but they are so big and beautiful :)

The one flower I can usually count on for color all-year-round is calendula. I imagine the whole yard was full of them once, as they pop up in huge numbers everywhere!

Just to cheer myself up on this rainy, gray day, I'm sharing some lovely color from last summer's garden.
