    I love all flowers but if I had to pick one it would be the Daffodil.

    I like so many tis difficult to choose, but if I consider the seasons:

    Winter = snowdrop
    Spring = daffodil
    Summer = rose
    Autumn = fuchsia

    Just thought ... shame that wasn't taken this month ... would win the competition, me'thinks, my dearest, but we can't have you winning too often, can we?

    I can't even claim it was taken here, the leaves are too "summery".

    A stunning photo!

    Very difficult decision but it has to be:
    the hardy geranium closely followed by the rose and snowdrop...
