Gazania Magic

A near perfect day in my neck of the woods, could've easily have been summer - warm with clear blue skies, a very gentle breeze - magic!

I ambled down the rustic brick path under the shade of my big native trees, turned a slight corner and out into the brightness of the sun and some Gazania magic. They are the most delightful treasures in my late summer/early autumn garden, they need little care and bloom for such long periods. There colours are always so bright and cheerful and their little centres are always full of surprises.

Thank you for yesterday's words, stars and hearts for my little Osteospermum, another delightful flower full of surprises. I'm touched it made the spotlight page - thank you :)

A warm autumn evening and I feel the urge for a bbq, a little wine or perhaps an irish whiskey with it being St Patrick's Day.

Happy St Patrick's Day all - enjoy!! :)
