It’s difficult to find any photos that show spring in Auckland. There’s just not that much visual difference between the seasons in Auckland, apart, maybe, for the odd day here and there.
I could show trees budding out or in bloom—but many of them aren’t natives or aren’t near the house. I’ve been trying to post more photos of what I’m seeing and experiencing, but apparently I haven’t been near many things in bloom.
The two photos here show the yuccas near our house in bloom. Yuccas, of course, aren’t natives, but I’ve never seen these in bloom before. So, here’s another little part of my day-to-day reality.

I didn't know those bloomed. Love the pictures!
I didn't know they bloomed, either, but I guess I SHOULD have known. Our next door neighbour's banana tree bloomed last year, and it was the biggest flower I've ever seen—the size of a small child. What I didn't know is that once the flower died, so did the tree. I'm not sure how I would've conveyed that in a photo. Oh, well.
More photos to come!
The only tree that blooms on our street in Spring is a lone Cherry Blossom. Gorgeous!
