Views of the Spectacle Garden at Roma Street Parklands, Brisbane, Australia

All these photos were taken in just one part of the Roma Street Parklands - the Spectacle Garden - at the end of the first month of spring.

I love that idea, it's as if the barrel is oozing liquid out of it.

They're violas Bobg - mainly purple and white - a spill of violas.

You're so right Motinot - it's a great effect that could be done in any garden. Of course at the Parklands they change the plants each season and there's hundreds of them spilling down that little hill.

Motinot I would have to use a very small barrel to do this in my pocket handkerchief garden ..... but it is do'able.
