Hi folks, tjhanks everyone for your friendly contact!
Texas, i was unaware Moths were of interest!
but, i'll keep an eye out, they are a bit plain...brown..
Deb, yes..it has just gone into Winter.
The temps are really quite mild and nice.
the days are warm an sunny, tops of around 20 -24 degrees C
( i'm not sure what that is in F..)
and the nights are cold..down to 8 at prez..
but often a bit higher.
we don't get any frosts here.
It's a great climate for many plants, but, anything Tropical, or really cold loving,
will struggle..like i'd like to try Trilliums, but its not cold enough!
The down side is the rain is getting less reliable, and we are not allowed to use tap water
on the garden, or anywhere outside the house really.
Australia is getting hotter and drier..sigh..it was bloody hot an dry enough!
anyhow, good mulching, and capturing the rain in buckets...helps.
plus, i grow mainly..bulbous, rhizome and corms, which store water i believe.
ok..that's it for now.
thanks everyone. nice to have met you all.
arte.
i love mushrooms too!
