These are delightful. I love the sunlight through the petals in the last shot and the geometry of the second, and the texture of the first.

I love the bald one in the middle - the textures are intriguing. Well done!

I love the flowers you post every week. I wonder if they can survive in hot weather. I would love to buy their seeds when I go to UK.
