Francais en Double Bay

After my second collapse in two weeks I was given these rules by the cardiologist: no driving until further notice; no up and down stairs; no living by yourself. So I am camping out with my daughter and SiL for a few weeks. The cardy cauterized a wayward whatsit that was causing the arrythmia (?sp) and I see him in 10 days. The neurologists are still trying to work out the vertigo and the seizure.

Having a BP reading of 60/40 was not nice ...

The purple haze has begun

Jacarandas are filling the blue of the sky all along my way to work. I took these photographs about 5:30 this afternoon as I sauntered home, much to the delight of a snuffling doberman.

There is nothing like homegrown tomatoes!

I bought this seedling at Gardens-r-Us on Gardeners Road on 20th September. The growth rate is astounding.

A spray from Tassie

Accentuate the positive

The second fig had dropped off the perch when I returned from work today, but I knew that was going to happen. Just like many miscarriages indicate that the seed had not grown properly.

Here instead are two images full of potential: olives and limes.

Boo hoo!

One had dropped when I was away, and the second I think will drop within the next 24 hours. The tree is too immature to sustain fruit and leaves.

I think I have solved the problem of the yellowing of the leaves of my lemon/lime trees. I applied two doses of iron chelates before I went to Tassie. They are looking better already. I will thin out the just setting fruit once all this inclement weather passes and give them some seaweed mix as a gee along!

Grow you little beauties. Grow!
