January 2025 in the Southern Hemisphere

[fermi de Sousa]

We've jumped into mid-summer with severe heat followed by a cool change - now the weather is warming up again.
ours is not a summer flowery garden but there are a few blooms here and there:
1-3) Eremophila 'Summertime Blue' which is a low shrub
4-5) towering above it is the lightly leafed Eremophila 'Big Poly' (E. bignonifolia x E. polyclada)

I got this from seed as Aster spathulatus which Robert tells me is now Symphyotrichum spathulatum (var. spathulatum?) - not as floriferous as in his Sacramento garden,
