    I'm with BM on this, with a lorra difficulty I managed to get it down to 8 but getting it down any further was sooooooooo hard. But if I really must chose it would be

    1. Marley Farley's Tinged with Pink
    2. Paladin Phloxy Lady
    3. Hornbeams Globe Artichoke

    but tis only fair that I mention the other five, cos all 8 were marvellous . So hard this month.
    Marley Farley's - Sunflower, BM - Pink Power, Marge - Hardy Fuchsi, GW - Brown Sugar, and Juliet's Delphinium.

    So many other lovelies besides these - I hope next month is a bit easier. The standard ofphotography in this forum is just :eek:

    1st Green Wizard - Brown Sugar

    2nd BM - Pineapple Power

    3rd Hornbeam - Globe Artichoke


    For the same reason for all the above pics, I have chosen them for the clarity of the close up pics. VERY VERY High quality pics this month .

    Though I have chosen a 1st, 2nd and 3rd ...... there are plenty of others worthy of the places.

    Will the bar get higher next month ??
