No Snow - only snowflakes

Our front garden
 Winter in Brisbane is beautiful. We get temperatures from as low as zero, but up to the low-mid twenties.  So we don't get snow.  However, every May/June we have these beautiful bushes called 'Snowflakes' that bloom in full profusion and fill our beds with white.

...and near the end of their life, if you shake them, do they snow?

If this is your winter please build an extra bedroom while you're doing your renovations... I'm moving to Australia! :-) Lovely Snowflakes! I'm in awe that your winter can see temperatures of low to mid twenties, that's our spring and most of our summer! Our winters it gets as cold as -45 and as you know from my photos we can get insane amounts of snow... yup, I'm moving in! lol Have a wonderful day!

Would love to have you over for a visit; will have to see about the extra room :) for the extended stay. LOL

You would be so welcome, so if you ever win the lottery or just make the decision - there is a bed waiting.

Your much too kind Beverly and if I ever get the opportunity to get that way you bet I'll take you up on that offer. The same offer stands for you if you ever venture over here for a visit. The way I see it the hotels make way too much money, they don't need ours! lol Have a fantastic weekend!
