What a lovely picture, Knud!   

Thank you, Roma, it was a lucky find. In a fit of 'monkey see, monkey do', I picked up a large, 'more perfectly' disintegrated leaf and placed it over an Eranthis, pictured below. A nice enough picture, but Nature wins, hands down. The picture does however show well the incredible lacy structure of the leaf.

What a treat on a Saturday morning/afternoon to have two interesting and inspiring lectures 'delivered to your home'. Thank you to the organizers, and to the presenters for enjoyable talks with beautiful pictures and informative comments. I went out into the garden right after the meeting, only to find it snowed under......must have been all the talk of snow in the meeting  . It makes for nice pictures, though, and here are few from our garden today.

First two for the presenters, a Cyclamen and a Hamamelis. Then some early bulbs, Iris Katharine Hodgkin, Crocus Prince Klaus, and what I got as Crocus gargaricus herbertii and which is now renamed Crocus thirkeanus (?).
