Wow geez. These are too perfect. Nice and sharp.

Thanks.



They were taken with a 16Mb Olympus OMD EM1 Mk 1 and a 40 -150mm 4-5.6 kit lens that I picked up for $120 because it was a display model and the store lost the box and books. Never been used.



I was astonished at the result. I think my Mk 2 and 12-40 2.8 might not get as much use as I thought.

If I recall correctly they are flowers from a succulent. They were in the Botanic Gardens and are not native to Australia. I recall they were in the section featuring cactii and suculents.

Most plants bear fruit or at least a thin fruiting body. The latter being the case with Heliconia to help attract insects, birds and small mammals to help disperse their seeds.

Do they bear fruit?

I looked them up, they don't produce fruit we'd find in grocery stores or fruit markets.



Most plants bear fruit or at least a thin fruiting body. The latter being the case with Heliconia to help attract insects, birds and small mammals to help disperse their seeds.


Really? I also balanced wines in the viticulture game..? That that make me sexy?

Here is one of my designs. I had to erect scaffolding each time that garden wall needed maintenance. The little sausage dog used to shit all the courtyard, so placing the scaffolding poles on the tiles used to put my hygienic OCD on absolute edge. I felt better passing scaffolding over their Bentley truth be told!

Oxalis is actually a weed, but the purple strain is grown as a house plant because of it's vivid colouration and beauty. Here's one of the more common weeds found in the temperate climate and tropics...

To the layman maybe. The plant physiology is exactly the same. Leaf, flower and seed structure is the same.

Don't pick them too green. They need to turn slightly yellow. You're eating the inner white flesh.

I picked up a gem of a tropical plant today... Philodendron goeldii (Finger leaf philodendron).

It has quite a unique leaf structure.

I picked up a gem of a tropical plant today... Philodendron goeldii (Finger leaf philodendron).

It has quite a unique leaf structure.

Of course. I also use them in landscaping. When people are selling up, they spend a fortune on doing their place up. Redesigning a garden turns heads.

They're also great with drinks

Carrisa macrocarpa (Natal Plum)... endemic to the region where I was born, Kwazulu-Natal.



As kids I used to remember picking these delectable plums on the way to and from school. People used to grow them as hedges for security purposes, as they have serious thorns on their branches and stems.

Yes they do Fash. They taste just like normal plums, but with a more fruitier and tangy flavour. When I was younger, I wanted to market them into Australia, but the red tape was too much. There is indeed an untapped market with this fruit. In the African tongue, it's called amatungulu.

Do those plums taste good Breakfall?


Yes they do Fash. They taste just like normal plums, but with a more fruitier and tangy flavour. When I was younger, I wanted to market them into Australia, but the red tape was too much. There is indeed an untapped market with this fruit. In the African tongue, it's called amatungulu.

They must be a delicious treat.

Carrisa macrocarpa (Natal Plum)... endemic to the region where I was born, Kwazulu-Natal.



As kids I used to remember picking these delectable plums on the way to and from school. People used to grow them as hedges for security purposes, as they have serious thorns on their branches and stems.

Very nice. Here in Brazil we have the Japanese plum, apparently it adapted very well to our climate



They were everywhere here in my city, they're a bit sour but delicious.



The ones that become orange are sweeter, but the light yellow ones are very acidic.

Depending of the species...sweet to tarty. It really has a unique taste. It's not very "fruity" put it that way. Back in the day the ouma's make jam out of them. And the aborigines refer to them as good bush tucker.



When it's been raining, they are a lot juicier.

I eat them all the time, and on more than a few occasions people have looked at me strangely

or exclaimed to me that they didn't realise that they were edible.
