tet_detail2.jpg
More tetragon close-ups.
lemonmyrtle.jpg
Lemon myrtle. They're normally not quite this yellow. I think mine needs more of something.
finger_flowers.jpg
Close-up of finger lime flowers. Yes, that is tetragon twined among the tree. It seems to like the company so I don't dare remove too much ... finger limes DO like shade, and this one doesn't get all that much.

Tetragon in the foreground, finger lime in the background.
munt_fig.jpg
Rock fig in background, muntries in foreground. I think they need some more water, too.
mint.jpg
Native mint and chamomile in a box. They fight it out fairly evenly for space and I just hack them off and drink them every now and again.
