    I thought I would share a picture of our very old cherry plum tree. It always has a lovely show of blossom just before the leaves come out. The blossom only lasts for a couple of days so we all really enjoy the view.

    That is so beautiful Aussie. I love Melbourne and would move there in a heartbeat.

    Summer arrived in the tropics today :thumbdown:

    Beautiful. Enjoy the season. Winter will be here soon and I am not really looking forward to it.
    Hugs.

    We have had a really cold winter in Melbourne this year so we are looking forward to a bit of warmth.

    I'm jealous.
    We're going into fall now.
    I love the springtime. Maybe I should spend spring/summer in northern hemisphere then again in the southern, and just skip fall and winter totally?
    Who'll put me up in Australia?

    Perfect day here in Dalby - the weather is starting to warm during the day but can get cold at night still - we have had some rain but not as much as country Victoria - we dont want anymore here for a few weeks so hubby can finish painting the house
