The good news today is our beautiful state of Victoria is on its way out of Covid Lockdown and from 6pm Friday travel is allowed between Melbourne and regional Victoria. This means I will be travelling to see family next weekend ❤ ❤ ❤
In the garden it has been another week of cold, rainy days so not much has been happening here in Western Victoria. Clematis are flowering and it is shaping up to be a bumper Rose season. Aphids are starting to appear so a quick squirt with a hose or a spray of horticultural oil will keep them down to a manageable level.
I have found another source of news of the environment, ecology, and culture in Orion Magazine. I am looking forward to reading this through emails and maybe finding things of interest to pass along.
Technicalities have slowed the release of my first podcast (again) but it is getting closer! Keep an eye out on all my socials! Frances.
