That's a beautiful FOTIE!

Phanks!

 

[Tom Dunne]

It's an unusual little "bunch" Rob. Healthy at the bottom, sick in the middle and in good health again at the top; am I reading this properly?

 

[Rob MacKillop]

I'm no horticulturalist, so have no idea what os going on...

Cheers, Tom.

Simply stunning Rob (the Master of the Merlin!).

I think Julian wears that crown

No way I am no longer into responsibility. Nice flower I see these a lot and presume the frost has got the mooshy ones.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

I guess it was the frost, though I haven't seen much of it around, I must say. Possibly the mildest winter I've known. Wet, though!

 

[Julian de'Courcy]

It maybe the nature of these flowers, they are rather grand when in full blossom and amazing structures to them. I'll ask a gardener the next time I see one in a garden I visit.

 

[Graeme Harvey]

Lovely detail. Weird situation, though!

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Thanks, Graeme. Lots of these around that day.

 

[Ivar Dahl-Larsen]

Beautifully done in its sadness!
