I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of visiting the gardens and taking photos there. Hope you enjoy these.
Aloe blooms
Echeveria “Mauna Loa” – such an exotic name
Echeveria “baron bold” – I love this variety very much.
Sedum rubrotinctum
Senecio – these always look neat
Crassula coccinea
This birdie was watching me, or maybe he wants his photo taken…
Finally, here’s a view of the city from the gardens, with Eureka Tower on the left (the world's tallest residential tower with 92 storeys) and Government House (with flag. This is the office and official residence of the governor).
Hope you are having a nice weekend.

Incredible detail and color on those succlents....I am slllllooowwwwlllly working my way into the succulent world....they are not like the cacti world and they they do not like to be overwatered....I don't know the middle ground of watering for these plants as I ALWAYS kill them....if anything, succulents are stuck between both those worlds.
I love the succulent photos, not to mention the birdie!
Fantastic color in the photographs! I love the first one; it's a painting.
I had a Jade plant once that deteriorated to mush from over-watering. Now I've got a Christmas cactus, which I think is actually a succulent? It blooms a couple of times a year: November/December and again in February/ March. It and I are getting along great with regards to water. It's getting huge.
I wish my kids have the same interest as you and me, so we can go to the Botanical gardens.
I love succulents, love your blog, found you via Dosanko Debbie. I'm in newcastle NSW.Until recently I have grown hundreds for charity (PLAN) but gave them all away owing to ill health. Still have a good collection though. I will link to you on my blog if that's ok?
Wonderful shots of some of my favorite succulents!
