We have had a couple of foggy mornings this week it feels so strange when it is warm
And kind of eerie when you walk around the garden I had to wait till after 6.15 am
Before I could take any photo's then the fog started lifting..
The Logan River is at the back of those line of trees maybe that causes the fog.
Most likely not as its just as foggy out the back.
And as I continue my way around to the front again
The Allamanda shines out like lots of bright yellow lights.
And the Crepe Myrtle is weighed down by the rain on its branches.
And across the driveway the White Frangipani flowers are starting to go streaky red
I wonder what is causing that I have two others all grown from this plant
And they both only have white with yellow flowers on them 
And as I turn to go towards the back again I see this beautiful sight.
My Favourite for the day Graham Thomas a fantastic cluster all blooming as once..
A wonderful ending to another year in the garden...

Thanks Gwen ..Yes it is kind of spooky in the fog.
Do you get any fog in the Summer up your way.
That Graham Thomas bush is on the South East side of the block.
I may have to move those three DA Roses as the morning sun is too hot for them.
They need a spot where of a morning its shady in the summer and sunny in the winter.
I haven't found it yet..

Good pictures  We haven't had any fogs lately... probably because it is so dry. The garden is looking good.
Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit, wisdom is knowing not to use it in a fruit salad.
A ounce of common sense is worth more than a ton of intelligence.

Thanks Gail..Yes it is I just hope the wet weather continues as it has been.
It has certainly made a difference to the garden, so much so that I am pulling plants up and filling the wheelie bin with them, yesterday I binned over 500 rain-lily bulbs, but the clumps are so thick they are taking over huge parts of the garden beds so there is nothing else I can do a shame really..
