The winter ones are a delight.

Interesting point raised above by Pauline as my roses are not as strongly scented as they were back in the summer.Annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10794392333038962798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4793702278130036246.post-3569386550482487732014-12-16T08:26:08.053+00:002014-12-16T08:26:08.053+00:00Here the black birds are singing?!!

Well, down-and-up, to be accurate. After an unwelcome and surprisingly early freeze, we're now luxuriating in the 70s (21C). The plants are confused, with irises blooming in some gardens around town.Pam/Digginghttp://www.penick.net/diggingnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4793702278130036246.post-73845763314518188562014-12-15T14:47:43.357+00:002014-12-15T14:47:43.357+00:00You have a beautiful confused plant, how lovely th...You have a beautiful confused plant, how lovely that it still has a perfume now that it is colder.Paulinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16057764572761794703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4793702278130036246.post-29162352771247218212014-12-15T10:42:10.803+00:002014-12-15T10:42:10.803+00:00Lovely honeysuckle!

The last few of my remaining summer annuals have just about finished now, but they did go on for a long time this year. And I had a handful of artichoke buds last month, after I'd cut the plants down and they'd regrown.CJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14311693185700341580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4793702278130036246.post-19974663713990441552014-12-15T09:20:04.006+00:002014-12-15T09:20:04.006+00:00Hi Gwenfar - there are winter honeysuckles and the...Hi Gwenfar - there are winter honeysuckles and they have a powerful scent which is wonderful at this time of the year. 'Winter Beauty' is one of the best and mine is growing in the shady (until recently) border in my back garden. Well worth growing and probably much more reliable than this summer usurper!VPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02732971362066784175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4793702278130036246.post-76671802896241266402014-12-15T08:56:51.544+00:002014-12-15T08:56:51.544+00:00Wow, a honeysuckle that likes deep shade & flo...Wow, a honeysuckle that likes deep shade & flowers in winter, even if it's not meant to. That's a plant I'd like. Pity the bird didn't drop the variety name with the seed ;)Gwenfar's Gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07326735419091325096noreply@blogger.com
