Una de las maneras de enfriar paredes es colocar vegetación al frente. Hace rato queremos poner alguna enredadera, pero no podemos hacer hoyos en la pared. La vecina nos había regalado recortes de su Ipomoea, que sembramos en macetas en lo que hacíamos alguna estructura móvil. Ya habían pegado y periódicamente había que desenredarlas de las otras plantas que tenemos sembradas. Finalmente ayer quedó listo un soporte para que se trepen y las instalamos. Justo a tiempo para la época de calor. #PlantasUrbanas #FloraUrbana #UrbanFlora #ClimateChangeAdaptation #Gardening #Jardineria

I found a beautiful tree today. #UrbanFlora #UrbanTree #ArbolesUrbanos

These gorgeous plants, or ground dwelling shrubs are found in Victoria right through to northern Queensland, normally in open dry forest or heathland.
It’s is the #BanksiaSpinulosa, commonly known as the hairpin banksia.
These ones have been displaying like this for over two months now and their heads are quite woody (internally) with loads of rigid spikes, I guess you’d call them, that grow and form around the circumference.
These will remain as pictured, until early winter I read with interest.
I love the range of subtle colours and the fine detail of these things. Quite dry and firm to the touch.
And they’re growing in abundance, very happily indeed here, in #caulfieldsouth #melbourne #Australia.
🙌💛🤎

HELP!!!
Anyone know what this is?
I wanted to say #GladiolusCommunis and exclaim ‘#HelloPossums!!’
But I had a sneaking suspicion it could be something totally different.
And so too does my ID app… in fact it suggests anything from #Lobelia, #Montbretia, #CannaLily - and yes of course… #Gladiolus!
Google image search wanted to tell me it’s a gladdy… but you know what.. I’m not so sure.
Whatever it is, ‘twas snapped on my sisters farm in #Centralvictoria a few weeks back… deep red and it is happy as Larry.
Oh what the heck, I’ll just say it;
#HelloPossums!!!!🤣🤣🤣

#BanksiaSpinulosa, the hairpin banksia, is a species of woody shrub, of the genus #Banksia in the family Proteaceae.
It is native to eastern Australia. Widely distributed, it is found in open dry forest or heathland from Victoria to northern Queensland.
These have just appeared recently I believe, here in a public space in #clayton #melbourne #Australia.
They’re growing in abundance.I think they look lovely in the post-rain, just prior to sunset a mo ago.

A domestic #olivegrove consisting of a few hundred trees in #Centralvictoria #Australia… just after #dusk.
These will be ready to pick soon.
The trees will be subject to a machine that will ‘shake’ each of them one by one carefully (and with love!), so that the olives drop on a mat and scooped up into a hopper.
This machine is called a ‘shaker’, funny enough!
We’ve had many a year prior, with dozens of peeps from near and far coming to pick for a few hours over a weekend - and rewarded with a hearty spread, vino and cheer.
Loads of strangers turn up to participate.
Olives go off to a small processing plant nearby and come back as oil. Loads of rain last year which means a bumper crop this year.
This lot will yield between 1000 - 2000 litres this year I think…
Pretty cool!

#BanksiaSpinulosa, sometimes referred to the hairpin banksia, is a woody shrub, of the genus #Banksia in the family #Proteaceae.
It’s native to eastern Australia.
Widely distributed, it is usually found in open dry forest or heathland from Victoria to northern Queensland.
These are prolific producers of nectar. Banksias in general, are a vital part of the food chain in the Australian bush. Birds, bats, rats, possums and bees rely on this wonderful food source.
These pictured are adorned with single flower spikes, say 1 centimetre long (1/2 inch) that generally contains hundreds of tightly packed spikes (flowers).
I felt the red one and the spiked section (I think it’s called an ‘axis’) is like a woody mass and the spikes are course and rigid. Not sharp.
I love the yellow ones. Just as much as the occasional red, on this group of shrubs.

This lovely flower arrangement in #melbourne #Australia pays tribute to the heroism and sacrifice of nurses during WWII via the Australian Nurse’s Memorial Centre (ANMC).
The #ANMC has been in operation since 1950 and also awards… “scholarships to nurses today as a living memorial to nurses who served.”
How wonderful!
In a past professional life I worked with many nurses and primary health professions, and they’re worth their weight in gold. Covid reminds us of that.

Corymbia ficifolia is commonly known as the #redfloweringgum.
It is a species of small tree that is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia.
This one was teeming with #bees and shining brightly in the evening sun during a catch-up coffee with a good friend in #StkildaEast #Australia.
We all scoffed lamingtons, which are a delight to eat on this #AustraliaDay.
Very #Australiana!

#olives (Olea europaea) are natives of the #mediterranean parts of #asia and #africa and have been in cultivation for thousands of years.
There is archeological evidence that indicate olives were grown in #crete as early as 3500 BC and olives are some of the oldest living trees in #europe with a few believed to be well over 1,000 years old.
These 500 or so #olivetrees on the farm produce well over 1000 litres of oil, after being picked and pressed nearby.
It’s a young #olivegrove; about 25 years old but has produced a bumper crop during most of those years. Draught however, impacts yield from year to year.
Fruit will start to appear in the coming weeks and harvest will be late March, through to April. There’s usually a large window of opportunity to pick olives in #centralvictoria #Australia. D#And it’s all dependent on weather and the development of fully ripened #olives 🫒
Picking has always been a festive event with people from near and far coming to participate. Once all the hard work is done, food, drink and merriment normally follows!
🙏💖

This greenery is from what my flora app tells me is a #ClammyLocust, #MossLocust… or another if about half a dozen other descriptions! Gosh my head is spinning.
Anyhow, whatever its name in any part of the world, this specimen is a beauty!
Was taken in a sunny day so its leaves displayed vibrantly in abundance. The sun almost helped make the leaves of this tree a kind of fluorescent in nature.
Super hydrating and eye catching!
