Pretty in pink

I had cut the grass this morning and the gazebo looked so pretty I couldn't resist these pics! Do I get any chance to partake in the hammock? Your guess is as good as mine.



I had a hog plum tree that was very untidy and the roots were unruly and affecting the lawn mower, so I had it cut down and planted this Dendrobium orchid in the stump. In the dry season it looks like death and in the rainy season a miraculous rebirth occurs.

  4. Gorgeous dendrobiums! I'm sure the pleasure of seeing it in bloom is well worth all those days when it looks like 'death' (good comparison, btw!) : )
    Do you know what that creeper in the first couple of photos is called? I have it too. Love the flowers but am not so keen on its garlic-ky smell.
