gardening time
Now the weather is cooling down we thought we had better see what we could do with the plants that survived the summer. We lost one banana, but otherwise most plants just about survived. The hibiscus is aphid infested, the other banana is very poorly and the frangipani is flowereing and loosing leaves at the same rate.
We have done what we can to these plants but decided to go to the Iranian souq to get more. For the roof terrace we bought another frangipani, papyrus and a coconut. For the front garden lots of pretty coloured flowers for the hanging pots.

Once we where outside we realised how dusty everywhere was, so Stephen got out the power washer and gave everything an autumn clean!
