What's Looking Good December 2022

Oxalis triangularis

@Sheal what is the scent like? I have oxalis pocockiae which has coconut scented flowers, though it's not very prolific.

 

Your welcome Michael

 

Sorry @CarolineL I couldn't tell you now, it's been many years since I last had one. @Jenny namaste or @Victoria can probably answer this for you though.

 

Sorry, I can't bend down to my one bloom.

 

Ah, mine is in a pot on a bench, so I can sniff it without risk to my knees

 

Irises - I've just finished this cross stitch and taken the image before framing.

 

Lovely @Sheal , I wish I could still enjoy cross stitching but unfortunately my eyes would grumble too much now.

 

That is beautiful Sheal.

 

Thank you @Upsydaisy and @Victoria.

My eyes aren't good either Upsydaisy and that piece was hard work, the stitches were very small.

 

It looks like a delicate water colour painting to me. Is it for yourself or a gift?

 

Okay, I will just push in here with a bit of sunny things in the garden ...
A view from where I sit out front (you can see the Brug in the distance) ...

The Iochroma ...

The Oxalis triangularis ...

 

It's lovely to see your sunny garden in the depths of winter @Victoria, great photos

 

Thank you Michael. That was about 11am and 17c and we then went to 20c.

Oh, and our Winter starts in January.

 

I always think winter starts in January, from then until March you tend to get the worst weather.

 

Yes, I see what you mean @Victoria. I sew for myself as they take too long to produce for gifts. This one is about 10 x 12 inches in size with 30,000 stitches, and took the best part of two years to complete.
