Woo! What a fantastic housewarming. :)

(you might not be able to tell, but this is actually several photos put together. yes, it’s true!)

Then we spent a very happy Sunday evening planting a whole bunch of them (and one or two we went and bought ourselves from two local guys). Click for slightly large than usual pic, for the details.

Starting on the one by Jo’s foot and going clockwise:
lemon tree; succulents; perlagonium; protea; more perlagoniums; lemon tree the second; perlagonium; (kate) bush; several succluents. I think.
Yay!
It’s starting to look like a proper garden now.

Front garden continues to asplode at excellent pace:

Pretty white flowers from the potato plant:
