Thanks Tony.  It definitely helps when the weather cooperates.

By the way, I didn't re-size these photos sufficiently to see the entire photo when you click on the thumbnail, my apologies!  However, if you click on the paper clip icon you can see the entire image.

Ed great to see your pictures I will have to come bagk a bit later next time to see them in full flower.

I am also enjoying everyone elses pictures and will get around to posting some of ours.
We have a lot in flower just now but time is so short that I am not in front of the computer much at the moment -there is far too much to see and photograph in the garden.

Hans,

Fantastic pics.  All appear to different to anything I grow, such lovely strength of colour in the centres of most of them.  Would be a pleasure to be growing any of them, so you're even luckier growing ALL of them.  ;D  Excellent pics, and thanks for showing us. 8)
Cheers.

Probably not the best day to play with a new camera as it has been raining most of the day but here are a few Erythroniums in flower today.

Nor here, 18C this afternoon. Must get some shade paint on the greenhouse (when I did that last year it started to rain and was still raining in August)

David,

If you could guarantee the same thing here, I'd spring you a trip to Canberra.  Oh to have good long rain.  I'd live with things rotting during winter if we could just get all our dams filled again.  So can you guarantee it would rain if you came here and shade painted a greenhouse?
Cheers.

If there's a free trip to Canberra in it I can guarantee almost anything ;D
