This is the most magnificent Stone Pine I know, growing in the Hedgeley Dene Gardens; we used to eat the pine nuts from this tree as kids straight from the cones. This was way before pesto burned brightly during the 90s as an obligatory mainstream thing to eat. There’s a relatively young one growing at the West Brunswick Food Forest - this is what it’ll look like in 30-40 years @woy_kizz_hashtagmeatbag #pinuspinea #stonepine #magnificenttree #agroforestry #urbanforestry #plantsofthemediterranean #hedgeleymalverneast #hedgeleydenegardens #childhoodtrees #bloodymassive #seriouslycheckitout #worthit

An Owl spotted in the Burnley gardens, apologies for obscure pic. It didn’t like being photographed and flew off onto massive limb of a Ficus microcarpa where it was promptly bombed by a Currawong. So birdos what kind of owl is it? #daytimeowl #owlsofaustralia #owls #nocturnalbirds #nativebirdsofaustralia #birdsilhouette #novelecosystem #burnleygardens #sunnywinterday

My Mum’s been crook for weeks but soldiers on regardless including serious foraging in her garden, armed with her ‘good scissors’ and ancient basket. She’s one of those rare people who actually likes and eats pineapple sage! I’ve been instructed to put in the broad beans this year and so they’ve just been done even if a bit late. I apologise to all Nonnas for buying up all the broad beans at the Northcote Plaza bean and nut shop for planting as crops and green manure, much cheaper than purchasing official seed packets #anglocelticnonna #muminthegarden #trojan #broadbeanseeds #sowingseeds #wintergardening #pickingherbs #foraginginthegarden #pineapplesage #followingorders #cheapseeds #northcoteplaza
