pinepigs_garden: pile of garlic with shadows and dramatic lighting (garlic)
While it is still early in the season, the roses are off to a cracking start so far. The Scentasia bush is going gangbusters with several florettes. Deep Secret's bud has opened & Broadway's tall stems are already almost brushing the underside of the roof again.

Here are some picts of the ones I picked today for the house. Enjoy! I'll be nice and only put 2 above the cut. I'm also going to put a picture of a native fuchsia up, Fuchsia Procumbens. The flowers are tiny, the size of your fingernail. The plant is like ground cover and produces a lot of nectar for the native geckos (and birds?). I think I've got some from a few weeks ago with my finger for scale.

I picked up the fushia to use in a terrarium, I've got 2 of them but haven't used them yet.



Here are the Scentasia Sunscent (I've got a Scentasia Apricot too). They have a light scent that is kind of a light floral. They are smaller roses, not tiny but not huge, and grow in bunches.


2 more under the cut.
