    Yes now and then a bee sneaks in, we put up screen this year because so many bees and butterflys go in and get trapped.
    They always want to Fly upwards and then they work themselves to death. I try to chase them down and out but can't catch many.
    We do have a net to catch them.

    Jake is removing most plants from GH now. We started seed far too early to begin with, So not sure most will take the transfer. I don't care anymore. I just hate it for him doing all that work.:(

    The greenhouse is getting lower on plants now, we have removed over sixty, so far, and they are looking good. I have bell peppers and aloe vera"s, a couple of others, and of course, my cherry tree to go. :)

    I’d love a hot house but no room for one in typical Aussie back yards …our home sits on about 800 square metres and the house/ shed / back verandah takes up allot of that space

    Beautiful. Much of what I have in my south sun room are flowers, not just edible seedlings. They help to cheer us up in the winter.

    I miss me plants. I gave to my girls when we moved up here, as the drive in was a bit brutal. One of the girls just admitted she she killed them. Not unexpected from her. She forgot and left them on her enclosed patio room during a freeze and they froze.:( Have only 2 at the moment. So many other things needed- money on plants are not in me future yet.
