| Hippeastrum |
This is my first hippeastrum to flower. This year I moved all the bulbs to one area so theoretically there should be a blanket of colour ... we'll see.
We had a very mild Winter and we "dressed" the vulnerable so most plants didn't suffer any frost bite. Consequently the plants are looking pretty good for this time of the year. I'm 'gamely' taking secateurs and shears to many bushes that I previously left for fear of destroying them so we will wait and see how that little exercise pays off.
We've had bumper yields of citrus which David attributes to his lavish amounts of troforte (type of fertiliser). There has been an overall improvement in the health of the garden so maybe the years of fertilising, watering, mulching and attention is starting to pay dividends. Mind you with Dave being at home for the last 3 months there has been more attention than if he wasn't here.
Anyway the garden in my humble opinion is looking lovely!
