I live on a farm in the south of Western Australia - hence I battle with water shortage and poor soil. Also have a small coastal garden with water!

You can find other like-minded gardeners by tapping on Discover and then "Popular" or "Recommended". There you will see other great photos of plants and gardens and you can of course “follow” anyone that you see there should you like to do so!

Should you ever need to reply to a message in your feed or just want to say 'hello', simply @username an individual i.e. @teamgardentags and that person will get an alert in their profile. Really hope this is helpful and you enjoy using GT! 😃

Duranta, probably Duranta repens.

Once-commonly planted but now, depending where you live, it's considered a weed. #duranta

Thank you for the reopens bit . Somebody suggested Geisha Girl but mine isn't that one. In our Mediterranean climate, south of Western Australia, Duranta is a blessing, it survives anything and is covered in blue flowers for Christmas - I love it!

Just saw your reply. To get someone's attention eg to reply or ask a Q or say thanks, you need to put an @ in front of their name so they get a notification eg @BrightColours Because this is your post you get a notification every time someone likes or comments, regardless of whether they tag you or not. 😊
