        • Hazel catkins, full of pollen. These are boy flowers - there'll be some girl ones somewhere.

          • A couple of very nice polyanthus. Bit better than the slug ravaged specimen I posted a few days ago!

                • Red dead nettle/ Lamium purpureum.

                  Nothing flamboyant but loved by bumblebees. That's a good enough reason to let it run wild.

                    • Great photo, thanks Roitelet. I've been looking for the ladies but haven't spotted them yet.

                      My flower is a little violet - they're popping up everywhere.

                      • I have violets too, wonderful scented ones that self sow to the point of becoming weeds.
