Learning Lessons

The bushland is looking beautiful as always at this time of year - orchids, and a few cat's paws are scattered around. It is a delight to spend a few hours hear each Sunday morning.
John came across this mound of Watsonia bulbs that we had dumped here last year, or maybe the year before. They were sprouting - there is a lesson to be learnt here - carry out all bulbs! It is bad enough having to dig them out once, no point in digging them up again!

We also dug out the flinders ranges wattle that Vicki told us about.

Back to GCW

Polished off the Watsonia patch and moved on to the Geraldton Carnation Weeds in health department land adjacent to Selby Lodge. There are still lots of GCW to keep us occupied to XMas!
I was disappointed at the amount of damage caused by bulb spraying in the Watsonia area - lots of shrubs adjacent to Watsonias have been damaged and are dying back.
