A Flower to Brighten the Day

I thought I would just quickly publish a little colour for those who may be caught in winters gloom.  This beauty is from a collection taken at the Horniman Museum’s gardens.  There will be more later in the year, or next.

For those of you who were kind enough to enjoy the squirrels climbing up my leg; I went back with food and got mugged by the squirrels.  So there will be more of that later and some Xmas lights.  In the meantime I hope this brightens your day.

    • Well I was going to give them the nuts anyway, but they just helped themselves. 🙂 Pictures later.

  7. It certainly brightens my day! We are so socked in with bitter cold and bruising winds. It’s going to be a loooooong grey and white week. Thanks for the flower.

      • It will sometime. We’ve passed the solstice and the daylight will bring added warmth at some point 🙂 Until then, I shall play in the snow – whilst complaining about it happily 🙂
