          Absolutely beautiful Upsy. It looks like a stately park. Your never ending hard work is paying off with the blood, sweat and tears. :imphrt:

            Having had the Jacarandas pollarded last year we didn't think we would get any flowers this year, but we have espied some clusters high up ...

            They are Melaleuca stems mingling with the Jacaramda fronds.

                Sadly no Upsy. Often the most beautiful flowers are the least fragrant. These clusters about a foot in length are about 25 feet up and I have a big nose but it doesn't stretch that far. :heehee: When they overhung the upper deck I could reach them.

                    Ceonothus has been so slow this year.
