Apologies – Lyndal and Barb
We had a lovely group of ladies and everyone started at Marilyn’s garden “Raywood” and no doubt everyone was inspired with the Art in the Garden. Thank you Marilyn for volunteering your garden.
Then everyone arrived here at “Caloola” and morning tea was on the agenda and lots of chat! We had a brief talk about the garden and everyone had a wander around. A large lawn area dominants the back garden with gums and garden beds all filled with cuttings from family and friends. An avenue of plane trees are planted on the northern side. On the western side is a bark area which is outlined with agapathus and dietes and filled with scrubs and trees. These all need to be hardy as being on the western side it gets fairly hot. A few cuttings were taken and Lisa wins the most organised – cuttings taken and then pots and potting mix in car and all potted up! Wow! 
From “Caloola” we then travelled to Carol’s place “Inglewood” and had a lovely wander around. A beautiful Albertine (I think I have got it right) climbing rose greeted us at the front mixed with ground covers and established trees including a Chinese Tallowood and a Chinese Elm. Then we wandered out the back and the garden has been extended out the back gate! Carol has used her creative talent and built a wooden fence around a lawn area and predominantly agapathus have been planted. Thank you Carol for volunteering your garden.
I’m sure everyone appreciated the time and effort Marilyn, Carol and Wendy put in to make the morning an enjoyable one!
