The wattle is such a delicately pretty flower. Unfortunately

some people have allergies when they bloom.

I like these feathery plants.

(Pennisetum alopecuroides)

It does work!

One of my students fed these "white" chrysanthemums blue food dye to find out how plants take in water.

This is how they looked before the experiment.

These white chrysanthemums are for a student's science investigations.

Here is an example of the photo art taken and cut out by a student.

I like this capture because of the bee.

I chose this for today's photo because I like the dark background,

even though it was a glorious sunny day.

The creamy flower from one of the species of gum trees in Australia.

Today was grey day. It rained incessantly all afternoon

and into the night. These flowers from a neighbouring

garden added a splash of colour to my day.

The white stands out against dark green foliage.

The Banksia was named after Sir Joseph Banks, an English botanist,

who journeyed to the Great South Land in 1770

with Captain James Cook, on the Endeavour.
