Some Unusal Flora at River Front Estate

This is one of our unusal garden members, Kowhai Tree from NZ, or Sophora microphylla is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae, native to New Zealand, it has been in the garden for many years and while it hasn't grown to the height suggested of 8m, it has amazing yellow flowers that come out in early spring. As to how it got into the garden at Riverfront estate Huon Valley accommodation, I reckon it was my grandmothers doing.

Fish & Chips in Huonville

Tangaroa Kai -Strictly Seafood - I have had fish and chips a few times from these lovey ladies, they park just down from the Globe Hotel on the Esplanade in Huonville. They have fresh fish from Dover Wharf. They are only there until 7:00pm and only on Thursday, Fridays, Saturdays & Sundays. They have a web page Strictly Seafood . Keep an eye out if you want some really nice fish and chips. Makes a nice meal to take back to your accommodation at Riverfront Estate .
