Yes in a garden down the street from me ๐ Thank you for identifying it. It’s lovely. Are the berries lavender in colour??
The shoulder’s been bad for two months now. I’ve seen the doctor, he thinks it’s actually a torn rotator cuff. Ultrasound and X-ray this week. I’ve written a post about it actually…. more to come.

No. Not a torn rotator cuff! I had a mild dose and the physiotherapist was useful. My daughter a much more severe one that required heavy duty drugs to enable her to get to her sister’s wedding. May the testing lead to healing. Dianella berries are an incredibly rich shiny purple, but not as beautiful as an untorn rotator cuff!
Oh thanks Meg. Yes the pain is getting to be unbearable. Sleeping is almost impossible. I’ve had enough. Ultrasound booked in for tomorrow morning.

Oh cool! Looking forward to seeing the berries. I have a photo of some purple berries but I’m not sure if it’s the same plant….

An extraordinary plant, and am thankful to Meg for the identification. A frozen shoulder is a horrid thing. I once had two at once when we were desperately trying but failing to sell our home and move. I found several sessions of Shiatsu massage (i.e. acupressure through light clothing) started the unfreezing process. Wishing you well ๐
I’d love to hear from you!
