Such a gap between Mother's day and Christmas!



Delicious bean, tomato and prosciutto salad...who said Chistmas is naughty!



King prawn salad, bowl of raspberries and strawberries with a cocktail which featured mango, orange and pineapple juice...problem with this is it was too easy too drink.



King prawn salad with basil and thai basil with a dressing of homemade mayonnaise dressing.



Raspberries and strawberries to accompany Lizzie's pavlova.



Geoffrey's home grown floral arrangement.



Mongolian studded dress featured in guest bedroom.



Chic side table decor, the flowers are companion planted next to the vegetables in the portage garden



This is a work in progress, a natural amphitheatre just too beautiful for words to do it justice. The first time I visited this part of the garden none of us had any idea what was behind all the overgrown vegitation



All the timber gathered at Tall Gums being stock piled waiting to be mulched and turned back into the gardens



Love this tree it looks like a sculpture...look closely to the left and the table you can see is made with a naturally split tree found when clearing Tall Gums



Looking back up to the property



The hard work of the past 12 months are starting to really pay off



Lots of local sandstone used throughout the garden features as sculptures



At the bottom of the garden another part of the garden emerges and a natural rainforest starts to raise its head
