It was a miserable start to October with triple the amount of rain (37.5mm) so far to what we got for the whole month last year, still - we needed it, the grass stopped growing pretty early last year.
So on Sunday it was gorgeous I got outside early and managed to do heaps throughout the day;
- planted the four pittosporums in the gaps along the western boundary fence
- planted the Lemon tree (Meyer) in the orchard
- set up the veggie garden bed (kitset)
- planted the three Karakas
- wheel barrowed about 4 loads of post peelings along the front of the yards as it was getting a bit wet again
- topped up the yards with new post peelings
- spread some mulch around the new trees
- sprayed 15L or organic weeds spray around the place - the orchard, the paddocks (dock) and the veggie patch (grass).
Got a bit of a tan too - all good.
As you can see the boys have been enjoying the sunny warm days...
The horses wait at the fence when they see me weeding - they love the Puha (poohah)...
Found this pretty weed next to some ragwort (grr)... not sure what it is...looks like it could be related to rosemary. What do you think???

Don't think it is related to rosemary but not sure what it is. Think we have some too!
Good on you for doing so much. I need a few days like that too...
