    never mind the Calendar… thinking of getting you to do some cards in time for end of year present swapping. What kind of format would I need?

    The ubiquitous Kestrel.

    Also ended up in silo park this afternoon. I’ll be trying to keep track of the painting of the Silos by Askew One for a future post.

    So close, and yet I still haven’t bumped into you. ;-)

    ETA: Were you out in Manurewa? This in Winter Garden in domain.

    Sorry, hadn’t looked here for a few days.

    So close, and yet so far… my waterlily was at the Wellington Botanic Garden! Haven’t been to the Manurewa gardens in decades but I sometimes visit the Winter Garden when in Auckland. Always loved the secret little fish ponds in the greenhouses.

    Poor Knight’s Island Lily (Xeronema callistemon) in flower. Always loved the name of this local.

    Wow, is that from your garden? Whatever, a great shot of a phenomenal flower. Despite my best efforts, such as dousing it with an occasional bucket of seawater, mine thrived but never flowered.

    BTW the callistemon part of its name is ‘borrowed’ from the Australian bottlebrushes, presumably because of its superficial resemblance. In size and form it’s more of a hearthbrush.

    Nice photo. I have wanted one of these forever but I am not convinced of it flowering in the south. Did yours take seven years to flower, as I have read?.
