So this is my white Iris Ensata with flowers of up to 30cms - isn't it gorgeous. No I am not colour blind - the packet said white and therefore it is white and 30 cm in diameter and not just 10cms. My OH says that something isn't quite right and didn't I think that it would look better in the Purple thread. OK so I will put it in the Purple thread as well - it is still white for me!!!!!!  RF |

These are not in my garden but my neighbour got them for me for feeding their cat. I think white flowers are my absolute favorite in or out of the garden.  |

What a lovely gesture snowowl - I am like you I love white in my garden and that is why I am so annoyed that my Iris is purple.
If I had wanted a purple Iris, I would have bought one.

I just love any white and cream in the garden too it really lifts and lights up the garden RF I have added that Dwarf Jasmine Philadelphus "Sibyille" to my want list ;D JL Love your Peony Shirley Temple, fantastic blooms. OH Uncle bought me 2 small plants of Edens Perfume last week and a flower to show me what it's like, same sort of flower as yours put it is a very pale pink with a white band around it's middle. This photo looks a lot more pink looking than it is and it is open a lot more now than when I took the photo, the perfume is to die for it's like a rose perfume. They say it is the strongest of all the scented peonies. I love it, does your smell  GH that Blackberry flower is amazing Few of my whites taken recently (sorry hit the post button before I added photos) Cistus also close up  Pansy, as if you didn't know  Dicentra Climbing Hydrangia just in flower  |

Iceberg sara Lovely pic, Sara Isn't Iceberg a beatiful, problem-free rose. It just gets on with the job of being gorgeous without needing any fuss being made of it. Doesn't get diseases, or even greenfly much. My perfect rose |
