Lipstick plant and more wet weather
I have put down some stones - still have a bit more to go, but this is definitely keeping the place mud free - whch is marvellous with all the rain we have been having. This is a true tropical wet season, and I am ready for it to end! It is hard to even find a few moments without pouring rain in order to take a few photos! I am happy with how the rain seems to drain away quite quckly from the gazebo and towards the pathway garden which I dug a little lower. I need to bring the level of the stones up a bit, so still need to haul in a few more loads. After my holiday I noticed that the anthirium flowers were green and have been foliar feeding with liquid seaweed every weekend and now I have nice colourful flowers. Some other flowers that are enjoying the wet weather are the lipstick plant, This year it has developed long tendrils and they are covered in lovely red flowers. When they start out they look like lipstick emerging from a tube!...
