The yellow crocuses looked stunning this morning with the sun behind, I just had to take a photo. Seems like Spring is on its way at last!

Rose, red
A beautiful red rose for Valentine’s Day.
Hydrangea
The dried, skeletonised flower heads of Hydrangeas look so delicate, yet they have survived whatever the weather has thrown at them recently, bringing an ethereal beauty to the garden border. I have given this image an antique tone.
Chrysanthemum
A macro of a Chrysanthemum flower from a bought bouquet. The colours are so striking it seems to explode!
Galanthus
The 2nd of February is Candlemas Day, a Christian Church festival. Snowdrops are also known as ‘Candlemas Bells’ so I thought they would be a good choice for my photo of the day.
For me, snowdrops signify the first tentative signs that the garden is awakening from its winter slumber. Roll on spring!
Check out my review of The Rococo Gardens in Painswick, Gloucestershire to see the snowdrops.
Amaryllis Red Lion
This is a macro of the Amaryllis I posted when it was still in bud. This is Amaryllis Red Lion – a bold and striking flower, but at the same time delicate.
Anemone coronaria, purple
This anemone coronaria is such a wonderful colour! Purple represents royalty and richness.
