Can it really be Wattle time already?????
home 1
It feels like only yesterday that I was picking this gorgeous flower from my garden, but has it already been a whole year???!!!!

Thank-you Mother Nature for giving me beauty such as this. Golden, delicious, sweet scented blossoms in a time when frost's and naked trees are the norm, Winter, you never cease to amaze me.......

  4. beautiful.
    If I brought those into my house my husband would divorce me. Albeit it would be a difficult process, as he wouldn't be able to leave the tissue box! Wattle is an amazing snot producer!!

  6. So lovely, I've been meaning to do this! The branches are even beautiful without the stunning blooms. I wonder if my housemates are allergic... :-)

  8. No way! It does only seem like yesterday it was in bloom. We don't have any around the house yet, but I might have to go on a hunt - it is such a delightful flower to have inside (if you aren't allergic).

  9. I just noticed all the wattle this weekend as well! We don't usually get much of the really yellow blossoms up here in the tropics but this year it is popping up everywhere. We have had a colder winter and then there was the cyclone in Feb so maybe that has something to do with it?? I love it but it makes me sneeze :-(
