Apricots almost ready to harvest! These are Moorpark apricots, they're huge, juicy and sweet. Since apricots are prone to gummosis, a disease that spreads in wet weather, it's best to prune apricot trees after harvest, on a dry day, never prune apricots in winter in temperate climates. #fruit #fruittree #apricot #moorparkapricot #permaculture #foodforest #multisensorygarden #biodiversity #gardendiversity #urbanpermaculture #urbanagriculture #organicgardening #organicfoodgardening #deepgreenpermaculture #naturephotography

Wild Bergamot (Monarda fistulosa), also known as Bee Balm, is a herb from the Lamiaceae (Mint) family. Its attractive lavender pink flowers are an excellent nectar source, they attract bees, butterflies and hummingbirds. The plants was used medicinally by Native Americans as a tea for colds. It was also used as an antiseptic, as it contains the compound thymol, which is an ingredient in commercial mouthwash formulas! 😲 #flowers #purpleflowers #bergamot #wildbergamot #monarda #herbs #medicinalherbs #medicinalplants #nectaryplants #beeplants #beebalm #beneficialplants #companionplants #macro #macrophotography #permaculture #foodforest #multisensorygarden #biodiversity #gardendiversity #urbanpermaculture #urbanagriculture #organicgardening #organicfoodgardening #deepgreenpermaculture #naturephotography

A close-up of an Agapanthus flower, also known as an African Blue Lily, with its catchy purple-blue colour and long stamens. Ironically, its name translates to 'flower of love', yet so many people hate them with a passion! They look far more interesting up close than at a distance planted alongside freeways! This often derided South African plant is very drought tolerant and is fire resistant. Its long strappy leaves don't burn very easily, so it's often planted in wide beds between a house and the direction of incoming fires to create a shelter belts which catches wind-blown embers and prevents them settling anything else alight! 😲 #flowers #purpleblueflowers #agapanthus #africanbluelily #macro #macrophotography #permacultureplants #fireresistantplants #permaculture #foodforest #multisensorygarden #biodiversity #gardendiversity #urbanpermaculture #urbanagriculture #organicgardening #organicfoodgardening #deepgreenpermaculture #naturephotography

Thornless blackberry ripening, growing on a trellis on the east side of a mulberry tree is protected from the scorching afternoon west sun and wind, it still gets full morning and midday sun. This plant survived two extremely hot windy days, one of 43 degrees C {109 degrees F} and one almost as hot before this photo was taken! 🔥🌡️🌞 Relative planting locations in permaculture are critically important! 🙂 #berries #blackberry #thornlessblackberry #permaculture #foodforest #multisensorygarden #biodiversity #gardendiversity #urbanpermaculture #urbanagriculture #organicgardening #organicfoodgardening #deepgreenpermaculture #naturephotography

A New Year's thought... Nature reflects a balance and harmony which can inspire us to find that same essence in our own lives. In our hectic modern world, the humble snail reminds us to slow down and do what really matters! 🙂 #snail #macro #macrophotography #natureinspiration #permaculture #foodforest #multisensorygarden #biodiversity #gardendiversity #urbanpermaculture #urbanagriculture #organicgardening #organicfoodgardening #deepgreenpermaculture #naturephotography

Keeping with the theme of bright, happy summer flowers, here's a cheerful African daisy, also known as an osteospermum. This variety 'Blushing Beauty' has a wonderful blend of colours! 🌸 🙂 #flowers #multicolouredflowers #multicoloureddaisy #daisy #exoticflowers #Africandaisy #osteospermum #beneficialplants #companionplant #permaculture #foodforest #multisensorygarden #biodiversity #gardendiversity #urbanpermaculture #urbanagriculture #organicgardening #organicfoodgardening #deepgreenpermaculture #naturephotography
