MORE plant photos for you all to enjoy. πŸ˜ƒ I just HAD to take them to cheer everybody up during lockdown. πŸ˜ƒ

Sharon from Te Atatu South

Photo 1: My lavender flowering. Yes, the flowers are pink bunny ears flowers. πŸ˜ƒ
Photo 2: Freesia flowers.
Photo 3: Another daffodil, leaning against the fence with a slug in it you can't see. It got that way because I did the weeding a few days ago, and so the daffodil had nothing to prop it up. Some of the freesias are lying on the ground too, for the same reason.
Photo 4: Some more daffodils, little ones this time.
Photo 5: Red polyanthus.
Photo 6: Another little daffodil - standing up by itself, this time.
Photo 7: Blue daisies in my rose/geranium garden.
Photo 8: A couple of little swan plant flowers on one of my bushes! πŸ˜ƒ
Photo 9: Rhubarb flowers. My rhubarb plant flowers prolifically. It also produces a lot of leaves and stems - I just harvested a bunch of stems from it the other day, and I am going to stew them up to eat on ice cream for dessert!!!!!!!! πŸ˜ƒ It tastes GREAT that way!!!!!!!!!!! πŸ˜ƒ
Photo 10: Some of my cyclamens I just had to take a photo of.
Photos 11 & 12: A bumblebee climbing into my broadbean flowers I just had to take a photo of because it was so cute and cool. πŸ˜ƒ
Photo 13: My red cyclamens I also just had to take a photo of. πŸ˜ƒ
Photo 14: My osteospermum daisy plants by the landfill rubbish bin. πŸ˜ƒ
Photo 15: My mint plant that's gone crazy what with all the rain.
Photo 16: My succulent garden - the best-looking of the lot.
Photo 17: My succulent begonia flowering.
Photo 18: My birdbath I just scrubbed out and refilled the other day - the pigeons love it so much it looks like it needs doing again. πŸ˜› I hope you enjoyed looking at all these photos!!!!! πŸ˜ƒ

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to β€œexuberance”? πŸ₯

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re β€œallergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
