More garden news:

Recently we poisoned the vine scrambling over the rock wall in the pool area. A s its leaves died, they turned a wonderful orangey-red. We expect it to shoot again quite quickly.
In January, the gingers were blooming. The yellow tall ones have now finished, but the reds are going on and on.

And the upside-down orchid is flowering. It is making up for last year's poor showing, by producing nine spikes, so it should remain spectacular for quite a while.

Biandar is for sale.
