I hadn’t seen this variety of hibiscus before our visit to Brisbane.

Almost fully in bloom
Pink and yellow frangipani in Autumn
Late bloomer
Neighbourhood frangipanis have been in bloom for most of the Summer. Our potted tree has reserved its energy until mid-Autumn. I hope the weather stays warm enough for it to realise it’s full potential.
Spinning room
I like this groovy meeting room at the University of Technology, Sydney (UTS), even though it looks like it’s spinning.
Russet ramblings
There is something satisfying about saying the word russet outloud.
A rolling of the “rrr ; feel the vibration in your chest.
Accentuating the “ss” sound followed by a long sexy “eht”.
For me this word encompasses the rich bounty of Autumn’s harvest.
Autumn pink (and yellow)
A front garden in a neighbouring street serves up pink (and yellow) against lush post rain green. What a colourful Autumn we are having in Sydney!
Easter flower
Birds of Paradise, also known as Crane flowers is one of the most beautiful Exotic Flowers. Birds of Paradise are native to South Africa. Birds of Paradise bloom from September through May.
The flowers of the Birds of Paradise resemble a brightly colored bird in flight and so the name Birds of Paradise.
From The Flower Expert website.
Easter time in Australia marks the end of the first month of Autumn. Happily we can enjoy these vibrant colours for another couple of months.
Monstera deliciosa
Aka Swiss Cheese plant from my youth spent in chilly England; these were house plants. It was not until I moved to Sydney that I first saw them flower and develop fruit that smelled like pineapple. You can see part of a fruit ripening in the top left of the picture.
According to Wikipedia,
Monstera deliciosa is a species of flowering plant native to tropical rainforests of southern Mexico, south to Panama.
