More about Spring

Once I realised it was Spring I went looking for the Feesia plants that I planted 30 years ago.  My nose told me where they were.  Originally they were just planted on the path down to the beach. 

This was a candidate for erosion and  is why they were planted here.

It helped slow the erosion but didn't stop it.

But now they have spread their way up the creek.

The banks rising from the sea heading south now also have flowers in bloom.  We only planted white flowers but there are now lots of mauve ones as well.

I collected a small number to put in the house and the perfume is lovely.

There is no turning back, it is spring.

I am not sure these flowers will last very long, they now grow right to the edge of the beach.  The forecast is for a week of temperatures over 30 degrees C.  I will enjoy them whilst I can.

How wonderful that your 'friends' keep turning up every spring. The perfume must be wonderful.
