One of my favourite sounds and what I can hear from my garden.

Just a few minutes in our garden having a look at the whistling frogs and slugs on the hibiscus.

I thought it was about time I posted an update on Casa d'Holanda as it has been a while. There has not been a lot of progress recently. I had to fire my Architect Technico in May and now have another one who has been much more dynamic and doesn't cancel appointments. A bit of a set back but I am hoping it proves to be a good move, even if it has meant some extra expenditure. The garden is a bit of a desert right now and it's a full time job keeping the weeds at bay and watering the plants as we are now in full on summer temperatures with very little rain this past winter and spring. I cannot plant anything in the ground yet as it would be a complete waste of time. Scaffolding and builders boots will do little for the plants but pots I can move around. I do have a few tomato plants and herbs but they suffer from an infestation of beetles owning to a garden which has been ignored for many years. One plus is my orange and mandarin trees are starting to show the beginnings of some fruit. Here's hoping that they manage to stay on the tree long enough to grow into something edible with a little help from some regular watering and fertiliser.

My two orange trees now have blossom and the bees are loving them.

The last birdcage came down yesterday and the palm tree got its trunk trimmed. The garden has officially been cleared. Now if I could just keep those weeds from growing...

My darling sister Phyllis has left but not before she helped me clear a fridge, two sofas, a double bed and base, shoe cupboard, sideboard and numerous other old junk from the apartments. Move a large pile of old tiles from the attic to the garage. Clear the garden of piles of cut bamboo and yucca leaves, including another 20 or so bags of garden waste. Move furniture from floor to floor and generally help me to continue the clearing process. Thanks sis. xx

21 bags of dried yucca leaves, 3 car loads of yucca branches and I'm still not finished
