AUTUMN AT BONY MOUNTAIN
All this beautiful rain-after years of drought-has transformed our place. It is like someone has waved a magic wand? wow! Hope all your gardens & properties are green & all covered in grass- our little trees are powering- and planting more currently! Always get enthusiastic after good season - replacing lost trees- planting more from cuttings -I'm always planting something! Have purchased some Avocado trees- some more Passion fruit- look forward to watching them grow! And Mothers day flowers- from last year- I do love CHrysanthumums! Hope they flower like this again!

MULCHING FOR SUMMER
So much mulching to do- with summer looming! I have had so much success with Mulching-over the years have used Cardboard- Carpet/Newspapers/Old clothing/ currently have huge big bales of old sugarcane mulch! perfect.

MULCHING STRAW
Got round bales back here-but currently have big sqaure bales- they get so wet with the rain- it is perfect mulch- all nice & moist!
SPRINGTIME AT BONY MOUNTAIN 2021
Wow-Spring is amazing here-everything flowering- bottle brush-look amazing- birds are having a smorgasboard -feasting on the nectar-from Grevillias ,Honey Myrtles,flowering gums, Photo of Hakea- yet to plant any of these gorgeous things! have one pin cushion Hakea- which is stunning-but these (shown) are really show stoppers! I want to plant hundreds around the Festival site- so it is a huge project! But so rewarding to see all the results of our early plantings-
