    It was such a lovely morning that I popped into the greenhouse to see how the "Gin Tree", Ginebra Gordonii, was doing.

    Like the citrus family, Gin Trees usually have two or three generations of fruit developing and ripening at the same time.
    That big one, top left, should be ripe enough for picking on Christmas day, along with the lemon in the centre of the picture.
    The small fruit with the red calix looks like a case of Bombay Saphirus. I will have to keep the other eye on that!!

    Happy Christmas.

    I was stuck for inspiration, but last nights frost produced some crackers!

    My second entry is "Natures Christmas Decorations"

    [​IMG]

    And my third entry is "Crystalised Pelargoniums"

    [​IMG]

    This is a test for the referee. I've changed my third entry to the same picture, but taken 24 hours later. The original is here. http://img72.imageshack.us/img72/6985/crystalisedpelargoniumcz8.jpg
