The orchids are lovely, the last one is fantastic, I've never seen one like that.

It was the worst thing I have ever tasted and only Moira could eat it. The smell was awful. It seems that the Jackfruit is slightly better.

You are so right SueA.

Today was spent taking the native jasmine off the roof of an arbour which has a very good brick floor/. I don't know what to put in its place. The jasmine was dead thatch with green on the top. I completed the garden top take the Avocado trees. I extended the potato beds to plant four seedlings of corn which Moira bought in the market on Sunday. I will try the Three Sisters method here.
