These are the flowers we had in the garden in late autumn 2016, taken on 15 May 2016. They're not all overly pretty, but the purpose of the photos is to record what was in the garden at the time.
Winter should be just around the corner, but there's not much to be seen of it. The roses, in particular, are doing about as well as they have all summer:

So are the petunias.

We have a couple of new flowers. The first Arum lilies, a random spring bulb and a Salvia microphylla:

The salvia is only technically in our garden: it's across the fence to the Marriott's property, and they planted it some time ago. But we've established that the fence encroaches about 1 m onto our property, and since we're watering the plants there, they're coming back to life. When it's a bit happier I'll take some cuttings.
And the Anigozanthos that Sasha chewed up some months ago is making an attempt to return:

The prostrate Grevillea that we bought a couple of weeks ago, and still haven't planted, is also flowering, as is one (but only one) of the Hebes that we planted last year:
