MORE plant photos for you all to enjoy. 😃 I just HAD to take them to cheer everybody up during lockdown. 😃
Photo 1: My lavender flowering. Yes, the flowers are pink bunny ears flowers. 😃
Photo 2: Freesia flowers.
Photo 3: Another daffodil, leaning against the fence with a slug in it you can't see. It got that way because I did the weeding a few days ago, and so the daffodil had nothing to prop it up. Some of the freesias are lying on the ground too, for the same reason.
Photo 4: Some more daffodils, little ones this time.
Photo 5: Red polyanthus.
Photo 6: Another little daffodil - standing up by itself, this time.
Photo 7: Blue daisies in my rose/geranium garden.
Photo 8: A couple of little swan plant flowers on one of my bushes! 😃
Photo 9: Rhubarb flowers. My rhubarb plant flowers prolifically. It also produces a lot of leaves and stems - I just harvested a bunch of stems from it the other day, and I am going to stew them up to eat on ice cream for dessert!!!!!!!! 😃 It tastes GREAT that way!!!!!!!!!!! 😃
Photo 10: Some of my cyclamens I just had to take a photo of.
Photos 11 & 12: A bumblebee climbing into my broadbean flowers I just had to take a photo of because it was so cute and cool. 😃
Photo 13: My red cyclamens I also just had to take a photo of. 😃
Photo 14: My osteospermum daisy plants by the landfill rubbish bin. 😃
Photo 15: My mint plant that's gone crazy what with all the rain.
Photo 16: My succulent garden - the best-looking of the lot.
Photo 17: My succulent begonia flowering.
Photo 18: My birdbath I just scrubbed out and refilled the other day - the pigeons love it so much it looks like it needs doing again. 😛 I hope you enjoyed looking at all these photos!!!!! 😃

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
