Cardamon Ginger leaves, Maidenhair Species and Clivea Leaves.
Protea, Bottlebrush with tiny white brush flowers, Dietes Bicolour
Gardenia Florida, May Bush and Autumn Crocus (Zephyranthes Candida)
A mix of green leaves
Grevillea species, Westringia Fruiticosa, Apple Gum and Banksia Ericifolia
The top photo was the shot of the day, it may be a little out of focus as it was an 'action' shot. These plants grow at the side of my carport. I was leaning over on the wooden railing to get a good photo and because of its age the railing decided to give way. Over and down I went, still holding onto to my cell-phone camera, the camera is OK but I am not. Winded, grazed and bruised, no broken bones thankfully. Ouch!!! Good that I had my phone, I had to call for help. :-)

So far I have spotted no illegal crops. So good job, and carry on.
ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful photos, Dianne! As always, you teach me something new about plants, here :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry to know that you fell but I chuckled with your sense of humour about the cell phone! That's the spirit!
Please take good care of yourself. I'm glad there weren't any broken bones.
Much Love + Extra hugs :-) ♥
Glad you are on the mend; not so happy that it happened in the first place.
ReplyDeleteThank you dear Rahul , yes it is a lovely garden. I will take more care and get well. :)

Thank you dear /t., that is such a sweet thing to say.
ReplyDeleteRuth and your girls are very fortunate to have such a lovely man as you in their lives.

Oh Pugsly my sweet I don't have any illegal crops growing in my garden, only perfumed leaves and flowers, so you can relax and stop worrying. :)

Thank you dear Fiona , I am happy that you liked my plant photos, I could not think of the name of the 'bottlebrush',I want to plant some more of those as they are so pretty.
ReplyDeleteIt was fairly sad really, I had 'winded' myself, I fell face down and hurt myself so much I made three attempts at getting myself upright, only to fall over again. I was shaking and in tears from the shock, I never dreamed that the wood was so loose. I sat there feeling completely helpless, wondering how on earth I could get up.
My son has MS, I am his career, he would not have been capable of helping me so I called a friend, he was very kind and helpful.
I never lose my sense of humour,when I told him what had happened we both hoped that the photo was worth it. Thanks for the hugs, but gently please.
Much love to you too. :-)
xoxoxo ♡
A lovely Garden!!
ReplyDeletedear Dianne take care please,
my heart is with you!
Wishing you all the best soon!

Thank you dear J Cosmo , for your kind wishes. Yes it was quite an unexpected fall, I should be alright once the bruising, swelling and pain go away.
ReplyDeletexoxoxo ♡
Thank you Elia dear friend for your kind and thoughtful wishes, yes I shall be more careful in future.
ReplyDeleteI am so pleased that you liked my garden, it was a pleasant day yesterday so I thought I would take some photos to share.
Love to you too!

beautiful photos
ReplyDeleteno broken bones thats good
Dobrze,że tylko siniaki masz , a nie coś poważniejszego. "Zielone" zdjęcia są ładne, ale nie za taką cenę :-). Pozdrawiam. *** Well, that just bruises you have, and not something more serious. "Green" pictures are nice, but not for this price :-). Yours.
ReplyDeleteTus alegres comentários a mis fantasias hacen alegrar mi espíritu,
ReplyDeleteUn fuerte abrazo
hey Dianne :D how are you?!
ReplyDeletegreat colors, you have an amazing garden full of greens and great plants :)
only dead grass here.
ReplyDeleteOh my word! You be careful now, ya hear? I'm so glad nothing is broken.
ReplyDeleteThe photos are quite lovely. Your garden looks lush.
nice garden! and love the quote on your profile!
ReplyDeleteThank you sm for your kind comment, I am pleased that you enjoyed the photos.

Giga dear, thank you for your kind words. Yes, my injuries could have been much worse and not worth it for a photo.
ReplyDeleteGreetings
Giga drodzy, dziękuję za miłe słowa. Tak, moi urazów mogło być znacznie gorzej i nie warto go na zdjęciu.
pozdrowienia

Amiga dianne.Que seria de este mundo tan materializado sin los poetas y los visionários,ellos nos alegran la vida,unos con sus verdades y otros con sus fantasias literarias
ReplyDeleteUn fuerte abrazo
Hey dear Tiago , thank you for your kind words, I have felt better but I will be all mended in a few days, I hope.
ReplyDeleteYes my garden is filled with many green plants, I love the different greens and the leaf shape and textures.
Your photos today were great!
beijos

Hello Phossy dear, thank you for stopping by.
ReplyDeleteAt this time of year my grass would normally be half dead and my garden would not be so verdant. We have had so much rain recently and all is green.
I hope you get some good rain soon. :)
xoxoxo ♡
Hello Foamy my little sweet pea. "Oh my word", is right, I said "oh, no" as I went hurtling to the ground wondering momentarily what my fate would be.
ReplyDeleteWell I soon found out, ouch! Hurt, completely bewildered,helpless, crying from the pain, thinking about people I love, was this the end, I was in shock.
Apart from my wounds I have completely trashed a section of the garden where I landed, no, the photo was not worth it. :)
The garden is green and lush at present because we have had so much rain, so much better than the threat of bushfires.
Thank you for your kind words.
xoxoxo ♡
Thank you Aguilar Elliot for your kind comment; yes, that is a great quote but sometimes when you are waiting for too long and dancing you can get awfully wet. :)

Estimado amigo Juan , que es tan cierto, la literatura que leemos, el arte que admiramos, nuestras fantasías y los sueños son mucho más importantes que las cosas materiales de la vida.
ReplyDeletemuchos abrazos

ReplyDeleteThanks dear chickory, yes nature photography is fun if we don't fall and injure ourselves. I hope your bruised hip is healing, my bruises are all over the place and are changing colour.
