This is November: The Flowers

The final installment of This is November. The flowers that appear in November are fabulous. The small native flowers shoot out of the ground for a short time. The garden is resplendent with most of the flowering shrubs a hive of activity as you saw in This is November: The Insects. Enjoy the flowers of November.

You saw the Jacaranda flowers in the This is October: Part Three Did you know that the Jacaranda flower is not only purple but white as well?

Some flowers are just made to be photographed.

A close-up shot of the Blue Salvia which the Lewins Honeyeater was feeding on in This is November: The Birds

A few drops of water and an early morning sun make for wonderful flower photography

The second flowering for some of the Grevilleas

The cactus had so many buds and flowers this year.

When the rain comes, the Crocus add splashes of colour throughout the garden.

One of the Day Lilys I was given by my mate Geoff. There is always a Stingless Bee flying around somewhere.

This orchid was at my besties sons place. An amazing cascade of flowers.

Here is the orchid flower

The Pandorea were flowering high in the canopy

My White Hydrangea has a pink hue

One of the best years for the Silk Tree flowering

The Roses at my besties are magnificent this year too.

And the scent is divine

The little yellow puff balls are everywhere

I love this Hibiscus which seems to have many names – I like Dancing Ballerina

The Lomandra growing on the forest floor has many flower spikes

The new leaves on the Paperbark are fabulous

The Paperbark was covered in white creamy flowers from top to bottom.

Growing in the paddock was a tiny yellow flower about 5mm in diameter. Once I saw this one I then noticed all the others.

The Bottlebrush flowers were their showy best this year. The Pink Bottlebrush flower is the second year it has flowered since planting about 10 years ago.

This is the red Bottlebrush flower I used as an experimental technique late last month

many people wanted to know what the bush looked like. Here is the Miniature Bottlebrush about 1.5M tall

The birds have been fighting over the Black Bean tree flowers

Have you ever seen a Pineapple flower? Now you have. I had no idea they had flowers like this

Last year, I found the Hyacinth Orchid growing in the forest at my place. I went looking again this year to where I thought it was but to no avail. Looking around my garden not only did I find one growing but two!
