Flowers from my Garden

The 'cold' weather continues, so I've been spending time in the garden tidying up and pruning, trying to get a handle on things. Our orchids seem to be oblivious to the cold and are shooting out flowering tendrils all over the place. I'm feeling pretty proud of myself, things are very slowly starting to shape up and I'm slowly filling out our collection! I just added a few honeysuckle cuttings and I'm still expanding our hibiscus collection. I haven't got hold of any cacao plants yet (though I dream of making my own cocoa butter and hot chocolate some day!). I've transplanted our little pomegranate and am hankering after a fig tree for our front garden.........I think I could get into gardening after all!
