Being outside and enjoying the beautiful plants and flowers that are about is definitely something that's keeping me going at the moment, so I thought it might be nice to grow our own garden here where we can all enjoy it.
Please add any pictures, links, chats about anything you're enjoying in your garden, have found on a walk, wish you had in your garden etc. Or just enjoy wandering around 🙂

Hi @CheerBear@Shaz51@Former-Member@outlander@soul @frog@Sans911@utopia - I have some more garden pictures to share once again. I went through a walk through the most beautiful garden near the seaside the other day when I come across this most unusual tree. Its roots caught my eye and fascinated me. I have never seen anything like them and was wondering if any of you did. I will put some pic below - if anyone knows what tree this is I would love to know. 🌴🌻

@Former-Member What amazing trees, I think they may be Dragon Trees - Dracaena draco
there are other draceanas - marginatas much smaller that are usually used as pot plants too.

Hi @MoonGal thank you for letting me know they were dragon trees. The root system on them was a work of art in themselves. They fascinated me. I loved your green space - I would love to spend time there, you are so lucky. Thank you for sharing - you have quite a green thumb. I have a native sub-tropical green area out my back yard where I love to pull up a chair and sit under my bauhinia tree there. I will over the next day or two take some photos and put them up here eventually. I hope you have a wonderful day and thanks for sharing that information with me 😊
