Thanks to all who have posted to this thread so far... and thanks to @wiseowl for making it a "sticky thread".
Here are a couple more, taken yesterday in the garden...

Scilla forbesii (used to be called Chionodoxa)


Heart of Tulipa 'Angélique'

 

Thanks for starting this thread @Papi Jo!

@shiney, amazing photos of bee orchids!

Hellebore Ice ‘n’ Roses Red

 

Brilliant photos @shiney - really shows how they got their name!

 

@Papi Jo would it be a problem if I posted images from my previous garden. There's very little growing in my current garden and nothing in flower apart from primroses at the moment.

 

@Sheal Images posted here are expected to be "fresh" and related to the current season. However I see no objection to your posting images from your previous garden, pending new flowering in your current garden!

 

Thank you Papi Jo. I'll respect your requirements and won't spoil your thread by using old images.

I think that's only fair @Fat Controller . We did have that problem on the other forum where people assumed that starting a thread meant they could make certain 'demands' on posters.
There was a thread for moaning on, and I stopped posting on it because of that. The threads didn't belong to the person starting them, but some people decided that was the case.
I'm glad to see that doesn't happen here

 

Not very sharp I'm afraid, plus it's a bit wind swept - Nectarine 'Fantasia' blossom.
