Olga,

They really are beautiful photos.  I'd struggle to supply names for most of that second lot though. ;)  Some beauties in there.

Some picts from S.-Petersburg Botanical Garden orchid show. Please don't ask me the names. I am a zero in the subject.



I think the first of Olga's pictures may be this taken at Cambridge Botanical Garden - Zygopetalum 'Elder Park'

Lovely Orchid pics. 

If anyone does want the full names of any them, then our very own SRGC member 'Michael', Orchid expert from Madeira who is currently at Kew for 3 years will undoubtedly know their names.   ;)

Olga,

Aren't Physalis just gorgeous.  It is like someone invented something to grow purely for photography. ;D

Zvone, I have also Primula vulgaris in flower now.

Here are some other signs that the spring flowering bulbs respond to a cold period followed by a little warmer (5-7 0C)weather:

Eranthis hyemalis flower buds and germinating seeds
Cyclamen coum
Muscari armenaicum 'Christmas Pearl' (which lives up to it's name this season)

Last weekend many florists and nurseries opened their gates for the
first Christmas shoppers. We took the chance to visit a producer of
Poinsettias, Cyclamen and other houseplants and were amazed by
the colours and forms of the various plants.
