What’s going on in your garden (2025)?

Are they the kaffir type?

As well.
Of those, the oldest one doesn't flower and never has.
The other has 3 fruits and lots of flowers. I have some recipes that I can use the zest for, otherwise I would remove the fruits as it's the leaves that are the main attraction

I just have to share a picture of my Yves Piaget rose from my front garden this morning. Still blooming in winter, one of my favorite roses. I used to have instagram for where I post pictures of my roses, but since I went on vacation and back, something changed, now they want my photos to be share to Facebook. I don’t even have Facebook.

This is a picture of my grapefruit, I think it’s Oro Blanco grapefruit, but it’s the size of a pomelo. I need help creating a dish with my grapefruit.

Thai Pomelo Salad (Yam Som O)
In case it's a pomelo, but will work with grapefruit

My lilac rose. It's not a named variety but it is happy where it is.

And the remains of the bottle brush tree.
We're hoping it will recover, but we've bought a couple of 50cm high replacements as a precaution. The bees and birds love the flowers.

I recall paying around $3 for a dozen of them frozen when I made my Thai/Vietnamese gricery run last year.

Most of this years harvest is in jars but these I hung up to dry.

Finally tamed the jungle. Good news is that there were no snakes, rodents, or radioactive stick insects:

The lads did a pretty good job, even though there were 2 or 3 rain intervals which made life difficult. I'm going to tidy it up even more at the weekend.
