  1. #NarcissusTazetta, #daffodil or #paperwhite are blooming profusely here in #Gardenvale #Australia. So apt is this suburb name, too!

    This #Melbs morning is cold but the sun is out, an awesome winters day ahead without many clouds, nil rain (thus far!) and blue skies!

    Perfect conditions of late, for early spring blooms, such as these and much much more!

  2. #PrunusPersica is flowering everywhere here in #Melbs and they’re so uplifting.

    So elegant in their appearance and structure, these flowers make my heart melt.

    Such a welcome to the colour pallet during #winter time, and these trees will fruit in good time to produce #peach.

  3. Good morning!! (Arvo, evening or night! 😉)

    #NarcissusJonquilla, commonly known as jonquil or rush daffodil, is a bulbous flowering plant and is a species of daffodil.

    It is native to Spain and Portugal, but very much at home here in #Melbs.

    Such a mood lifter, especially blooming during our winter months.

  4. #BanksiaPraemorsa, commonly known as the cut-leaf banksia, is a species of shrub or tree; it’s a #Banksia.

    It occurs in a few isolated populations on the south coast of Western Australia.

    Grows well here in #Melbs and they’re displaying in abundance in gardens throughout our grand city atm, during mid-winter!

    The woody spiked head is a greeny -yellow colour, on this one anyways.

    Many I’ve noticed present in various colours; some rustic brown, others a deep red too. Just beautiful.

    The detail of the rough, woody florettes are astounding.

  5. #ZantedeschiaAethiopica, commonly known as calla lily and arum lily, is a species of flowering plant in the family Araceae, native to Southern Africa.

    They’re popping up everywhere here in #Melbs and they’re looking healthy.

    Love their robust petal structure and those yellow stigma are something else.

    Very pretty indeed.

  6. Missed tonight’s #MelbourneSunset propper but by all accounts, it was some sight to behold.

    Especially for mid-winter.

    However, @Witchy_Minx caught the post #sunset within minutes of the sun going down (looking over #AlbertParkLake #SouthMelbourne).

    Whilst I managed to snap the western skies around 30 mins following sunset. From the inner eastern suburbs of #Melbs.

    A fair team effort i think!

  7. A little bit of #greece 🇬🇷 painted by #katerin (created 2023), on a novelty shop wall near a little sitting area.

    A huge #Greek community in these parts of #Melbs.

    It’s cute, reminds me of my time in #crete many moons ago!

    And the catsss! 🐈🐈‍⬛

  8. #roses for your viewing pleasure… they’re still displaying proudly in #Murrumbeena #Australia.

    Still fresh and healthy, even in the cooler period of mid #winter, here in #Melbs!

  10. Cmorn @anne_twain and @LifeTimeCooking - purleassse correct me if it’s a Paeonia this time 🤭😂😂

    Pics taken just now on this cool #Melbs arvo in ##oakleigh #Australia .

    Surely it’s a #CamelliaSasanqua, with common name sasanqua #camellia; a species of Camellia native to China and Japan.

    Whichever, it’s gorgeous and bountiful!

  11. #NarcissusJonquilla, commonly known as jonquil or rush daffodil, is a gorgeous flowering plant, a species of daffodil that is native to Spain and Portugal but has now become naturalised in many other regions.

    They certainly add colour and vibrancy to any overcast day.

    Saying that, the sun has been making an appearance for the past hour or so in #Melbs.

    Whatever you’re up to, make it a goodun!

  12. Taking a trip down memory lane (only a few months back!!) to the #Rone exhibition at #FlinderStreetStation #Melbourne #Australia.

    Cannot help to marvel at the amazing photos on my phone that captured Tyrone Wright’s brilliance, oh so easily.

    ‘Rone’, as he’s affectionately known, is an accomplished Melbourne based artist. He has created amazing street art and large scale mural works for years.

    His recent exhibition in #Melbs was designed to remind (perhaps educate) us, of the forgotten, mid-century, working-class life.

    The subject matter in this recent exhibition (11 rooms, with differing themes; job roles / professions), featured European women migrants of the 1950-60’s who were largely behind the city's booming manufacturing industries.

    I loved the props, music and of course the poignant candid (natural) appearance of the young women making their way in their new world in #melbourne #Australia back in the day.

    A handful of pics from this exhibition, below 👇

  13. #birdofparadise are revealing themselves with their unique and vibrant colours in metro #Melbs I’m noticing lately.

    They’re such a mood lifter and add something to the otherwise subdued #winter colour pallet of our suburbs.

    They’re beautiful huh?!!

  14. And here I thought #autumn was done and dusted here in #Melbs!

    Have noticed a distinct change in transformational timing of some species of #flora this year.

    We’re in early #winter now.

    Some leaves turned and fell early, yet others late. Some flowers e.g. hydrangea made a small comeback with the onset of warmer weather early to mid-autumn (usually flower throughout summer).

    It has been an enlightening period in this regard, some may say strange times indeed!

    Anyways, this wax tree or sumac is living its best life, displaying its gorgeousness no matter the season!

  15. Cool and wet this morning in #Melbs.

    Now, this is what I call #winter!!

    After school drop offs, this tree caught my eye, mostly bare… with rain droplets on the ends of its branches catching the overcast light of the early morning.

    Thought it pleasant enough to share.

    Have an awesome Monday!

  16. #Melbs own Marty Brazell is an accomplished artist, large scale muralist and the nicest guy you could ever meet.

    His ability to portray fun and the fantastical in his subjects, particularly in his series of our world’s entertainers, past and present is just awesome.

    All are oil on canvas. 1 metre x 1 metre.

    Painting 4 hangs prominently in my living room.

  17. Meet #Magnolia crossed with #Soulangeana (Magnolia denudata × Magnolia liliiflora), the saucer magnolia or aka the tulip tree, is a hybrid flowering plant in the genus #Magnolia.

    This was snapped this morning in #ormond #Australia.

    It is a deciduous tree with large, early-blooming flowers in various shades of white, pink, and purple.

    It is one of the most commonly used magnolias in horticulture and obviously grows (and flowers prolifically) well here in #Melbs too!

    Just lovely.

  19. Hibiscus rosa-sinensis, known also as Chinese hibiscus, China rose, or Hawaiian hibiscus is a tropical tropical hibiscus, cultivated as an ornamental plant in the tropics and subtropics, but its native range is Vanuatu.

    It isn’t tropic in #Melbs atm, but it kinda is for this time of the year, early #winter.

    Just like the last few days, we’re heading for a top of 18 degrees (65F)!!

  20. @Witchy_Minx took these pics early this morning and flicked them through for me to marvel at.

    So, thought you could marvel too!

    Good morning #Melbs!!

  21. #JustineMillsom is #Juzpop!

    #Melbourne-based artist Juzpop specialises and thrives on creating works oozing with fem strength, mixed in my opinion, with a good deal of fun and sass.

    These are just a handful of her works adorning Melbourne establishments… including huge murals displaying brightly in public spaces around #Melbs.

    Full of colour and vibrance, I love Justine’s style and expression of the female form.

  22. #redfloweringgum are so vibrant when they’re in their prime. The past few weeks has seen many of these come alive, with special blooms of red (mainly) throughout the suburbs of #Melbs.

    They bloom right up to May.

    It has a restricted distribution in the wild (it’s native home is only the south-west of Western Australia) but it is one of the most commonly planted ornamental #eucalypts.

    And bees go wild for these; they must have an abundance of nectar to extract.

    Just beautiful.

  23. #Melbs pre-sunset tonight in #StKilda #Australia… it’s one of my fav go to’s…

    #Trams, tram tracks, #palmtrees and the #sun. Also merry chatter in the street, revving motorists and doof doof music, from the neighbouring cafes.

    But surprisingly enough it’s jacket weather… summer’s behind us but I suspect week eek out a couple of hot ones before the months out!

  24. #Hibiscus flowers in #elsternwick #Australia the other day caught my eye.

    Sort of orange-red in colour… I’ve been seeing a load of pink but this colour appears to be less prominent in #Melbs (in the suburbs I’ve been scoping out, anyways!).

    Gorgeous.
