Village lane walk








We had an explore around the local lanes...found an interesting purple flower..any suggestions? It grows into quite a large shrub.
The solid wooden doorway belongs to a beautiful modern house...with a roomful of Preloved clothes for sale...Pirate bought me a very nice stripey top.
The trees are impressive...even if they are Australian gum trees....and even when cut down. How are the mighty fallen?

I remember being amused by the higglety way NZ letterboxes jostle along the road :) Your purple plant could be Solanum laciniatum and I think it is known as ?Poroporo there, looking at the flower I suspect it is part of the potato family x
