"Garden visiting for a good cause."

Hello,

Happy Monday.

I was delighted to get home from shopping on Saturday. You see I had a copy of the Community paper and it showed the gardens that were open in the Hills over the coming weeks including the weekend. So plans were put in place to travel to Kalamunda on Sunday. Even the storms didn't put us of the idea. We had been to the gardens called "Congella" last year. This time around we certainly still enjoyed looking at the garden, in fact it looked better this year. With the sun not quite willing to come out as it should in Spring some of the blooms were closed over. There is so much garden to explore and we got lots of hints to stabilise the garden where steepness is concerned.

 The is a small portion of the side garden.

"Big Red" Geranium.

 Bronze Kale in the veggie garden.

 Kangaroos, this sort don't jump out in front of your car!!!

 This path runs right down one side of the garden near the fence line.

 Red Berries on a tree I have no idea of what it is.

 Part of the front garden.

 Frog Birdbath made by the owner.

 Emus made with barbed wire. These were quite close to the path. I certainly wouldn't want to fall onto them.

There were lots of Camellia bushes in full bloom.

After a look around the garden and a look at the plants for sale and the jam stall we had a lovely Devonshire tea. Funds raised from the day went to the Amanda Young Foundation. I can still remember when one of our children was 5 months old and suddenly got sick. Our Doctor was very quick of the mark and tested the child for Meningococcal Disease. Thankfully the Lumbar Puncture came back clear, though another completely different medical condition was found.

Happy days
