Our holiday in Canberra

September 2007

As far as I could tell, most of the flowers on display in this year’s Floriade festival in Canberra were tulips and daffodils. There was a generous sprinkling of other flowers too, including plenty of pansies, one of my favourites. My mother used to grow these in twin beds each side of the path leading to the door of the home where I grew up. It is a shame that she never really had much opportunity to travel during her life. She would have been astounded at the display of hundreds of thousands of flower blooms all together in one area such as that during Floriade.
