Sydney rock orchids for a Sydney return : August 30 2026
Published on HivePostify by @carrinm · Mon Aug 31 2026
Heading back to Sydney photos - Coolangatta Mountain. Looks like a resort place. It did start out as a caravan park - hence the nice pool. Now it is an over 55s place. Grandkids and a few oldies use the pool. Great on hot summer days when Ollie visits
My wife had told me about the Sydney rock orchids flowering the back of Mick and Carol's place
A few in the front - dendrobium speciosum
Next plant along has a spike full of buds to add to the one open
The one in the back yard was a full bloomer. Just exploded this week says Mick
Close up - dendrobium speciosum. This one has beautiful tinges of pink.
Trip home did require some route changes as some of the roads we would normally use were still closed for Sydney Marathon. We knew in advance to take a big wide loop around the city.
Car unpacked. Lunch eaten. A few steps needed to get over 5k. Walked up to the local tennis courts to see if there was pickleball happening. 4 courts running. Talked with an organiser - he was not asking if I wanted to join. It does tell me there are players locally. Might eventually get a weekday session running
Disappointment of the weekend was not seeing my son and granddaughters. Got Ooshies to hand over. My son told Scarlett at bedtime reading time. "Can we go to Daddyman now?". "A bit late for that". I will send some in the mail as it could be a few weeks before we travel down there again.
