Flower and Garden Show Melbourne

Hi there!


We have a great flower and garden show in town - in fact, this is the greatest show of that kind of the southern hemisphere!
I went there today and made around 400 pictures.



Of course, I couldn't wait to share some of them with you guys.
Since a picture is worth a thousand words, I don't feel I need to talk much here :)


























There is so much more I'd like to show you! I think that roses and 'floral fashion' deserve special posts.

Now to the gardens:































Ans look at this transformation!
Before:


After:
And of course this garden is fully sustainable!


Here are some more ideas for DIYs:








OK, enough pics for one post.


Tomorrow I'll talk a little about myself. Namely, I was tagged by Hanni from Hanni's Crafts into something like 'truth game' and I'm going to answer her questions in a post.
If anybody is interested to be tagged in this game, please let me know. I think it's fun and improves connections. 


So, till tomorrow then!


Love, DK

    We just went to the San Francisco Home and Garden show ------ it's nothing like this (and should be). Totally awesome. Thanks for all the photos; simply gorgeous and fun stuff.

    Oh Melbourne.... lovely show. I so remember all those exotic flowers like those red bristles you are showing. The Australians can be so creative, and it shows!
