Christmas Cheer on the Back Fence



Well the Bougainvillea growing over our back fence is out in force as if to celebrate the coming of Christmas and so I thought I would send you a photo to cheer up this site and give a little bit of light relief from the subject of pegs.

The flowering shrubs and trees are especially good at the moment and we wonder if it is something to do with the drought. Maybe the trees are so lacking in water that they are producing flowers like crazy so that enough seeds are created to ensure the continuation of the species. You should see the Jacaranda's, they are an absolute dream just now with their bunches of beautiful blue (that's B to the third) flowers ... our garden not big enough for Jacaranda though.
