This spring we have our fair share of rain and thunderstorms. However, sunny days like today bring out the beauty of our native flowering trees and plants...
The yellow is the wattle, the lilac is the jacaranda, the red is the bottle-brush. We don't know what the pretty orange ones under the jacaranda tree are called, but they come and greet us every year.
In my younger days I used to play with the fallen flowers of the jacaranda and bottle brush. Now I am not so interested in the flowers, although I still climb the trees occasionally. The favourite activity of this granny cat is....
Basking in the sun, of course!

What exotic plants and trees you have in your garden...but none as exotic as you!!!
Everything looks gloriously lush and warm! We wish we could speed through winter here in the northern hemisphere and get back to Spring and summer! :-)
The Spring colours look lovely. We wish we were going into Spring and not Winter.
Considering we have no leaves on our trees anymore and all our plants are pretty much dormant now, we love seeing all your pretty plants and trees.
Everything is so pretty, but not as pretty as you!
Purrrfekht!

Beautiful photos. ALL of them.
It makes us all purr knowing that you are getting sunbeams! Enjoy every minute in your springtime garden MoMo!
What a pretty spring garden! I'm sure a lot of the kitty gardeners in the northern hemisphere are a little envious of you today, Momo!
its amazing having the chance to visit you all the way across the other side of the world - your garden is so beautiful and ours is bare. Love Darcy and Bingley xx
We love the jacaranda and your bottle bush is huge. Basking in the sun is one of our favorite activities too. ~AFSS
My sweet MoMo would you like to stroll in the Butterfly Garden and the pasture with me today?The wildflowers are breathtaking, just like you. ~Socks
Lovely plants - we had them when we lived in Florida!

Basking in the sun sounds a great way to spend time in yoor beautiful garden.

You're so fortunate that you're coming into spring now. Look at all the pretty colours in your garden! At least we, in North America, can all live vicariously through your pictures. It'll help us get through winter. Thanks.

Have a purrrfectly Wonderful Day ;~)

I love Jacarandas!!! It is too cold for them to grow where I live. We have Rhododendrons and Wisteria and Jasmine.....
Just beautiful!!
Oh, and the flowers and plants and stuff are beautiful too!

How nice to see these beautiful pictures. Our trees are the opposite of yours and not pretty at all right now. I am glad you can get outside and get some warm sun rays on you.
Thank you for sharing the photos of the plants in your area! They are very different than what we see here.
And you look very lovely basking in the sunshine!

Wow Momo! What a stunning garden you have there. Anytime you need company basking in the sun I'll join you. I'll bet all those flowers smell wonderful too!
We are sorry you're having tough times there. We are too, and like you, we are finding the bright spots like home, food, love and friends.
purrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrs to you all things get better soon
If it wasn't for the CB and your wonderful blog, we would miss all that beauty in Australia! And we see you have found a warm stepping stone to lounge on--perfect!
