Not very inspired today so this is a close-up of my Corydaline in flower - such a sweet heady perfume .
I have had rather a long day I got up at 6-00 am as I had the carpet layer coming to carpet my bedroom and to put a new floorcovering in the bathroom . While he was here I went out to watch Gary de constructed the rockery by the pond - It had become entangled with switch grass and other unwanted weeds !! re arranging the stones will be done another day . Absolutely delighted with the new bedroom carpet and the bathroom floorcovering ! And by now everything back in their places .
Many lovely flowers on your cordyline and will attract the insects over the coming weeks with its sweet perfume. Good to hear you have your new carpet and flooring you have made a start to your list.
The perfume of the Corydaline always catches me out as I have on by the clothes line and it takes me a while before I look up and realize where the strong perfume is coming from... bees love it..
You have had a productive day…nothing nicer than the smell of new carpet! I’m not familiar with that plant…I thought at first it was pampas grass, intrigued to see from @julzmaioro that it has a perfume! Anything less like a perfumed flower I couldn’t imagine!
Gary have will be tired tonight too after all that garden work…you are a good team!
@happypat it is a cabbage tree Pat the is seen everywhere in NZ bush / swamp land and garden here.. the perfume us very strong and certainly too strong to have in a vase inside.. a bit like lillies but stronger..
