October in the garden

The weather has really started to warm up here in Sydney, the temperature recently has been in the up to 39C.  The winds are still around, we don't normally have them for a few months like we have had this year.  Most of the Frangipanis are in bud and the leaves starting to open up, and the new spring growth has started on all the other plants.
