These are the flowers we had in the garden in mid-autumn 2021, taken mainly on 19 April 2021. They're not all overly pretty, but the purpose of the photos is to record what was in the garden at the time.
The sole remaining Buddleja weyeriana has been in a pot since the other one died. But that hasn't stopped it from flowering:

Now if I only knew how to keep them alive in the ground.
I've had the curry tree outside on the verandah over the summer. It was looking really sick last winter, but the stay outside has done it good and hopefully rid it of the parasites that were making life hell. Here when I put it out in December and now:

And the Abutilon cuttings that I got in January are also growing well. Here compared to last month (first two photos):

The chilis that I planted in the spring have not done well. Only one, a chile de arbol, has borne any fruit:

|
The Helichrysums that I planted when we moved in here 6 years ago are gradually doing better:
|
The Leucadendron in the north bed has been flowering for a while, but it's interesting to notice that the colour of the flowers has changed in the last month:
|
|
And the bulbs that popped up out of nowhere last month, without leaves (first two images), are now dying, but they're developing leaves:
|
|
|
I can't imagine that that's normal. I recall them having very large leaves long before flowering. Hopefully they will recover for next year.
Here are the rest:
