Spring?

The little blossoms appearing on my Peach tree I planted a few weeks ago are signalling that spring is just around the corner. However, I feel like we have skipped spring here in Brisbane and headed straight into summer with the temperature reaching 34 degrees Celsius (93F) the last two days.

Wow, that's some serious heat! We've had the worst summer ever. Started off with three weeks around 31 degrees in June, and July and August has been averaging around 16! What's going on???
Your peach tree looks beautiful btw!! :)

No kidding! It has been hot but it's great for the ink drying quickly when screen-printing fabrics :)

Anna from Absolutely Beautiful Things blogged about the same hot weather. I will trade your hot weather for our sticky hot Miami weather.

We've had some great days here too but short lived. Back to cold and windy! Can't wait for spring and summer. Julie

What delicate little flowers! They are so lovely. I love that time of year, when spring begins sneaking up on you.

Beautiful photo...I love the first signs of Spring... Mother nature hasn't been very happy here lately. The Summer was so unpredictable. It just rained for like 90 days!

So funny that your seasons are opposite of ours. It's the death of summer here! I'm ready for Spring too...but gotta go through Fall and Winter first!
Enjoy your tree! Beautiful,
