Sunflowers and other plants...

Well this blog is mainly to see the gradual growth of both our palm trees, our sunflowers and also the garden change since we moved in on Friday September 7th 2007!

Here are some photographs of flowers (wild mostly) and our Sunflowers etc in our garden and the garden transformation so far since last september.




Well yes these are all weeds in fact but still i was practising taking photos using the 'macro' function on my new camera and what is best but natural, wild flowers growing!
Next doors cat, Angel, seems to like munching on our grass anyways!

Here are some updated photos of our sunflowers,
These were uploaded/takenon Friday 20th June 2008! Since then the flowers have started to open! So I will update as soon as I can with the sunflower flowered captures.

The palm trees (as other items in the garden) are kept watered and seem to be doing fine i.e. not dead basically which is an achievement for us so here is a macro detailed picture of the palm tree leaves....

If you take a look at this picture you can see EJ watering the plants for me, the slabs are the old ones but since this photo was taken on Wednesday the 21st May, we have since laid really nice 'Rosemont' slabs, I will take a photo of these later so you can see the difference...

you can see part of the colouring on this picture, where the spade is laid down on the ground. This was taken near to the back window so the stones have mostly disappearred of what you can see to your right. Phil is now in the process of getting the patio grouted so there are no gaps etc.
