Just what the doctor ordered for Persephone
and the wee solar garden lights we've been trying to power up for a week. 
The Rocket has taken over the salad garden, I'm really going to have to do something about that. Though it's become quite the skink habitat. 
This morning I quietly watch a skink skitter and leap from leaf to leaf, a coppery, bright-eyed acrobat.The moist and mild conditions seem to suit the hydrangea. It's gone completely ape-poo, putting on an astoundingly, almost blinding-white display of it's fluffy floral art.
And the ginger lily is at it again. 
I do love that I can have my weekend wanderings in the tiny garden, tis soothing to the spirit.

Wow! If I am ever in Australia, I have got to come see your garden.
Maybe you could get a pet wallaby to catch all those skinks.
MG - if ever you are in town a tour of the Brown-Mouse garden could be arranged. Should take all of 5 minutes:)
As for skink catchers, I've already got one of those - Ping is forever bringing the poor dazed little things inside for me to rescue and pop back outside.
A wallaby would be useless, these native animals gang up together against we feral imports.
I'm looking forward to tracking Persephone's progress...
;o)

Well, Ms Persephone has a nice new/old 1/2 wine barrel to live in and as soon as the hot sun goes down she's being moved to her (hopefully) final home.
Hmm - those lights should have fired up in a day - mine only needed a few hours out of the packet to shine that night !!
Looks like you mightn't have taken off your 'protective' plastic bit from the tops though perhaps ?!?!?
H&B, we'd had no sun for a week to fire up the little lights, but a day in yesterday's sun has them going great guns!
