A lovely flower that reminds me of my grandmother. She had them growing in their garden and would have a small bunch fresh on the table when they were in season. They look and smell really pretty and brighten up the garden nicely.


This is one of the very few photos I have of an organgetip butterfly, they are so quick and rarely land, but this one let me take a few pictures.

I finally got around to filing the multitude of photographs I have taken over the last 6 years. It’s only now I can start to fully appreciate the amount of different flowers that I have seen. So far I have named over 60 and haven’t quite finished. Sorry if flowers aren’t your thing, there’s going to be a lot more coming up! Starting with the Japanese anemone which we had in abundance in the UK where I used to live. A very pretty flower.

A very pretty flowering tree that was once in my garden. Apparently another common name for this plant is nettlespurge.

This is a very pretty little succulent plant called a kalanchoe, photographed in Spain with a Nikon D5500.

I don’t always know what the names of the flowers are that I take pictures of, but I always try and identify them if I can. This lovely pink flower is a lavatera tree mallow.
