    Although it's now October, I took these in September.

    There's still a little bit of colour in our garden and a few plants have started flowering again.

    The Freemontedendron is still flowering and has been doing so since April. It usually goes through to the first frost. The flowers are dripping with nectar.

              Sorry, I was lazy and didn't look back at the photo, and had just been discussing with Mrs Shiney that our Nerines had just flowered. :dunno:
