I'd like to pluck that blossom and stick it in my hair and then prance around imitating Amy Winehouse.

No, wait a minute. Alas, I don't think they even sell enough black eyeliner around here for me to pull off the Winehouse look.

What a lovely Hellebore... I personally like the 'Nigra' one, which as the name might suggest, is quite dark...

Oh, BTW, whose in charge of our pets... Well ME of course!!! lol... Seriously, it is the cat, Jasmine, who 'rules the roost'!!

Have a great WW!!

Superb. Almost good enough to kick me out into the garden to play, unfortunately, homework calls.

The speckle pattern in the petals is fascinating. They're almost in stripes. Another beautiful flower, Jams! Happy Valentine's Day!
