Flowers in winter

The 'six-on-saturday' meme is hosted by The Propagator. In his words, it's "Six things, in the garden, on a Saturday. Could be anything – a flower, a pest, a success, a project, a plan, an abject failure – anything at all!" So if you want to find out what's happening in other gardens, do go on over to his blog!

And when you do, you will find that other gardens have a lot of flowery stuff going on even at the end of winter. I determined last week to go out and see if I do not have atleast six flowers going on in my garden too. Guess what? I do!

Here they are

1. Marigolds: A little tired at this time of the year, but still happy
 
2.Ditto the hydrangea. 
3. Nothing tired about this Saptarangi rose, though it is the last one of the season.

4. Nasturtiums still going strong too
5. The rosemary is looking a little washed out in the photo. A pity, because it is quite pretty really
6. My Sweet Williams have been flowering all winter. True, just one plant that managed to find itself shelter under the jasmine, but a lovely thing nevertheless.

Wow, an amazing amount of blooms in your garden. I'm amazed, especially the marigolds. That rose is stunning.
