    Hi!
    As I said in my post "I see no objection to your posting images from your previous garden, pending new flowering in your current garden!" Although I started it, this not my thread and your close-up images certainly won't "spoil" it. Please go ahead and post!

          Today has been sunny but windy so photos not as clear as should be...but then I am not as good a photographer as so many others are.

              Your photos are fine, it isn't a photography competition.

                The afternoon sun has warmed up the blooms of Choisya x dewitteana White Dazzler and it smells like heaven.

                          This is a solitary, unknown Narcissus in my garden. I've put some 'Jetfire' nearby to keep it company!

                                I don't know what the triple headed ones are called, I didn't plant them. Cute though.

                                I can't work out the photo posting thing.
