Silver Dory<p>First flowers out on the Grevillea 'Cupid's Dream' - popular with the local grass-darts. With classic hybrids like 'Pink Surprise' and 'Misty Pink' difficult to find in nurseries these days 'Cupid's Dream' could become an excellent alternative with sprays of pink flowers and deeply divided blue/green foliage. </p><p><a href="https://aus.social/tags/InTheGarden" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>InTheGarden</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Grevilleas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Grevilleas</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/OzPLants" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OzPLants</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Autumn" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Autumn</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Butterflies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Butterflies</span></a></p>

M.Paola<p>The cutest thing: can you spot the two mason bees peeking out of their holes?

M.Paola<p>The abandoned messiness of my sunny sheltered garden is the perfect propagation ground for several plants.

M.Paola<p>Good morning, goedemorgen, guten Morgen, bonjour, buongiorno, buenos dias. This is the time of the year when I scour every inch of the garden to pull out Acer seedlings. On cheerful prop news, today I'll be making the last 3 grafts for this season. I've never had so many lupins, after last year's made the winter and more germinated (yes it was them the mysterious seedlings). My lemon verbena cutting is a survivor and so it seems are a couple of Cytisus praecox's <a href="https://mastodon.nl/tags/inthegarden" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>inthegarden</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.nl/tags/plants" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>plants</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.nl/tags/propagation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>propagation</span></a></p>
M.Paola<p>4 mason bees around the bee hotel today, and a couple of holes have appeared in the seals from last year, so they may be local <a href="https://mastodon.nl/tags/inthegarden" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>inthegarden</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.nl/tags/biodiversity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>biodiversity</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.nl/tags/latewinter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>latewinter</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.nl/tags/climatediary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>climatediary</span></a></p>
M.Paola<p>Several bumbles spotted and the first mason bee inspecting the bee hotel. I'll have to start monitoring for emergence of Ichneumoid wasps that parasitized their nests last year.

Silver Dory<p>Grevilleas are always a good way to attract wildlife to your garden but these 'Cupid's Dream' hybrids are already proving popular with some of the smaller locals and I haven't even taken them out of the pots or removed the labels yet!

Silver Dory<p>Grevillea leptobotrys (garden/grafted) - low-mounding WA species featuring delicate sprays of uniquely shaped lilac/pink flowers + blue/grey foliage & reddish new growth. An outstanding rockery feature now grown commercially (as 'Lilac Tangles') and widely available in general nurseries as grafted plants in SE NSW. Definitely worth a spot in the garden if you see one at you local nursery!</p><p><a href="https://aus.social/tags/Grevilleas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Grevilleas</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/OzPlants" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OzPlants</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/InTheGarden" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>InTheGarden</span></a></p>
Silver Dory<p>Grevillea hilliana (white yiel yiel / white silky oak) still flowering well in the garden in mid-December. A fair bit south of its natural range here at Corunna, NSW but has done well grafted onto G. robusta.

We have had so many flowers this year and I can’t stop taking photos of them. They are so dramatic and photogenic.

M.Paola<p>Do you like this Aster (possibly ageratoides)? I got a cutting from somewhere... none of the Asters I got so far even remotely matches the very tall delightfully violet one I had on the plot for a couple of years and so carelessly lost. This one is a bit sparse and the colour contrast is a bit off for me... but the hoverflies still like it so <a href="https://mastodon.nl/tags/inthegarden" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>inthegarden</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.nl/tags/plants" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>plants</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.nl/tags/earlyautumn" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>earlyautumn</span></a></p>
