Weekend at Fernies

Last weekend The Fern Society of Victoria had a meeting ina potting shed.
I have been a member of this for decades (surprise! surprise!).

We had a meeting in the potting shed of a large fern grower at Lara.

Thought you all might like to see some green growing stuff.

Secret Weekend Doings


Every now and then I break out of the Library mold and see growing things.

No, not the dust gathering at NEW but real green stuff.

A few weekends ago I helped my friend open her garden for Australia's Open Garden Scheme.
This was a real experience ( just like being on desk!!!!!!).

Here are a few photos of my friend's garden at Park Orchards, just your average couple of acres
on the crest of a hill with bushland views. The pics are curtesy Kay H and hubby Warren who
turned up to check out the japanese garden section.
