Garden City or Mining Boom?

Today, the Saturday of the Carnival of Flowers parade, is the biggest day of the year in Toowoomba and for the first time in a decade the Garden City is truly living up to its name. Thank goodness for summer rain. There was always going to be long term benefits from last January’s floods, and its fair to say they’ve arrived. The annual flowers appear to be brighter than ever and the new foliage on deciduous trees is the most exciting shade of lime green I’ve ever seen. Such a magnificent display is largely due to good soil moisture, flowing creeks and rivers, and full dams.
