Boat shaped garden with tea tree and two grass trees. Watercolour on rag paper. Last Saturday we made a wire corral that turned out to be boat shaped to protect the tea tree (leptospermum) from getting it’s bark gnawed by feral deer. We planted two grass trees (xanthorrhoea). They will take a long time to grow. Watercolour on paper

In ' the Badlands' we are cutting back the privet along the fence to a manageable hedge height while it's in flower to avoid all the seedings that fallen berries would produce. A fallen apple tree is still alive with a single fruit and a damson plum. This purple flowering ground cover has appeared and so have some native violets in  a Hawthorn Grove. Woodland emerges. #badlandstowoodland #purplegroundcover  #nativeviolets #hawthorngrove  #privet #privethedge #privetexperiment #noglyphosate #dharawalcountry  #gundungarracountry

Wishing good tidings and good will to all for this Wishing good tidings and good will to all for this 2020 Christmas from  our front door wreath. Thanks to @wendyramagejones for getting me started with the coil of twisted willow and ivy and by wresting the dried bracken though it. I have added dried Banksia leaves  gessoed  alocasuarina cones, a seagrass seed star, a kookaburra feather, a garlic flower and a bit of tinsel bling. Such fun. Good cheer. #handmadechristmaswreath #plantsforchristmasdecoration  #collaborativecraft #floralcraft  #driedfoliage

Pulling thistles on Sunday, I noticed delicate native geraniums and possibly, a yellow yam daisy have begun to grow in the clay ground at the base of the small poplar and damson plums that had been smothered under the blackberry thicket before. #riparianzone  #paynescreek  #gundungurracountry #dharawalcountry  #blackberrycanemulch #nativegeranium #badlandstowoodland #thistles
