We've had lows hanging around off the coast and monsoonal troughs pushing across from the inland, so there will be rain for quite some time yet, unfortunately!<br /><br />Hi Lotusleaf. The Dianthera is becoming more common in the nurseries here now, so I do hope it makes it's way over there soon.BernieHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04435004798656616711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4481571533790905294.post-7255860588324118472011-01-23T10:57:00.392+10:002011-01-23T10:57:00.392+10:00I'm sorry the humidity is zapping your energy,...I'm sorry the humidity is zapping your energy, I vaguely remember that feeling from summer.

Queensland has suffered most, but the flooding has affected New South Wales, Victoria and Tasmania as well. 2010 was a very wet year, one of the wettest for most of eastern Oz and that set up large tracts of the country for inundation once the summer rains arrived. <br BernieHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04435004798656616711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4481571533790905294.post-89152148371684728132011-01-22T22:03:42.834+10:002011-01-22T22:03:42.834+10:00Hi Bernie.
