Winter? Ah! You're down under. Cool. I love the blushing daisy things.
They are rescue plants from the nursery in the local hardware store - you know the plants that they mistreated by over/underwatering or keeping in the dark that they sell off for next to nothing to suckers or should that be succours like myself to try and rescue. Repotting using soil out of the worm farm sometimes resuscitates them. Those in the photo I have had about 6-8 weeks. I think resuscitating them or not killing them off gives me the greatest satisfaction.
How cold is it there in winter?
At the moment we have been having cold days only reaching 10°C which compared to our 35 - 45 of summer is bloody cold. Nightime it can sometimes go - 3°C. but recently only +3's. We never have snow.
@FrayedBear Don't tell anyone but I would miss snow.
It's pretty.
But flowers in winter? That's pretty cool!
@RavenCT I can't say that I have missed it in 40+ years. Many have to rush off to the snow but never having had balance until recently I have never developed a desire to ski.
