Nice selection Gail....

Thanks all. It's a pretty colour freesia but hope there are some other colours left too.

Thanks Gwen, Dendrobium rock orchid is as far as I had gotten in ID-ing it but ran out of time and never got any further.

A lovely bunch of flowers, Gail. Freesias are one of may favourite flowers...their perfume is to die for.

Thanks Fay. I love the freesia perfume too... I've actually picked a couple of stems and put them in the bathroom as an air freshener.

I have just been out on the scooter and discovered more turning over of mulch by the orange footed scrub fowl, and the variegasted pocket plant [ Xanthosoma atrovirens ] I had from Gail and was growing so well has been uprooted. Faye has potted it up, I'll keep it in a pot till the wet arrives and the fowls should no longer be interested in digging in my damp mulch, they will have acres of rainforest much to plough through.

That's a shame Gwen, even though it's so nice to have the birds and animals around sometimes you wish they wouldn't visit.

My language is beginning to get BLUER by the day, I know that does'nt help but sure makes you feel better.Faye is going to put some sticks around some of my special small plants . After the small silver/white begonia got trashed she put a few sticks around the one that was left and the fowl have left that plant alone . Anything is worthy trying.
