And this one is Guernsey Cream:  Beautiful pics Plocket and a  from me for this one. It just sings to me!! I quite agree! I hope all the clems I've planted this year end up as floriferous!  My first ever Zantedeschia came out last week but it's all distorted and a bit nipped  I think it might have been frosted some while back. I'm sure there will be many more!! They look gorgeous - still waiting for mine.  RF |

Thank you all for your nominations  Guernsey Cream is certainly one I would recommend, especially as it can cope with shade. I've got one in the front garden too, flopping over the garden fence, and it always gets lovely comments from passers by. I love the Zantedeschia too |

Lovely pics folks. That Gerbera is Boooootiful (as Bernard Matthews used to say before bird flu). Wee I've always fancied Smilacina (love "frothy" flowers). I wonder if it would grow in my soil?

That's lovely Wee. If you'd put that on name that plant I'd've said it was a Japanese Anemone. But then, you know me, always jump in with a gut feeling!!

Viburnum Opulus flower head. This is from the bush in the front garden which for some mysterious reason is always several weeks behind its back garden counterpart.  Choisya ternata 'Sundance';  Choisya ternata 'Aztec Pearl';  |

Magnificent Choisya's Spru! Don't see many as good as them around here, probably due to the salt air.

Wow, that's lovely Tig. Is it a Peace Lily? Couldn't decide whether to put this here or under yellow. But it is a creamy yellow so here it is.  And here's another Zantedeschia, just unfurling.  |
