Alien Plants?

 Are these from another planet?

Strange plants!

They look strange but are just bamboo!

Bamboo grows very quickly. The one next to the shed grew that tall in about 10 days!

It's a bit freaky, look outside and there's nothing there, the next day a meter tall plant has grown!

They seem to appear out of nowhere!

I managed to get outside this morning. Did about 15 minutes, that's all I had energy for!

Found some more lovely flowers.

Very pretty, but I don't know the name.

David and Christopher took over!  That helped a lot.  They have a lot more energy than I do, plus the muscle to move things. I hope we can do this everyday, just an hour or so should get the area cleared.

The area that we have to clear is big. From the stream at the back of the property to the road is 39 meters, from the neighbour's house to the field behind our house is 32 meters. Some of the area is taken up by building, but there is still a lot of space that needs cleaning out! 

Step by step, just keep at it, do some every chance we get! That is what I keep telling myself!

I came in, washed dishes, cleaned the kitchen, and made a nice lunch.

Good lunch

Looks very Japanese! The soup was vegetable soup from last night! I've also figured out how to cook rice without the rice cooker. Takes time as the rice has to soak before cooking and then steam after the water has cooked off.  I've tried a few times with varying degrees of success, today's was the best so far!

Today has been good! But looks like rain tomorrow! Typical!

Never mind, this garden will be cleared out one day!
