Jasmine.


I woke up this morning to the smell of jasmine.


Our front garden has sprung to life with all our chinese star jasmine in bloom.
When we first bought our house we planted some jasmine as ground cover and off it took! So low maintenance.

It is low maintenance and smells lovely.
What more do you need?

We are having morning tea with my dad today so we have made some orange and poppyseed muffins. Yummo! Poppyseed muffins for Poppy. Perfect!

Later tonight Finn is having his first guitar performance. He will be playing "Smoke on the Water". So proud!

  4. Mmm, that is a heady smell of Sydney summertime, Simone. We have it down here in Hobart as well but it's not as prolific. I love that muffin pan - I'll have to hunt one down. Oh, and good luck, Finn! J x

  5. If I had a daughter I would seriously consider naming her Jasmine just becasue I love the plant so much. In fact as a girl I remember buying Jasmine plpants at the local market and growing it in a pot on the back deack off my bedroom. It looks very healthy at your place and a stunning display! I've never seen Jasmine as a ground cover before! Great idea!
