This rose has a slew of well-deserved awards, including the Gamble Fragrance Award in 1970 and World's Favorite Rose in 1981. The scent is intense, lush and fruity, and the flowers are big, many-petaled, and gorgeous. Even its buds are fragrant!

This orchid is at home in Europe and Asia. Loves wet meadows.
Its scent is similar to cinnamon.
In Germany the numbers are shrinking. Protected by law.
Let us be grateful to people who make us happy, they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom.

This is growing on a steep cliff - the ground is over 500 feet below.
Delicate and beautiful, I love them...
STUDIO WEATHER!
We always have a smaller studio in our home, in between things there is time for some of my favourite photography, playing with lights...
Went to the 'end of the market' for a cheap deal on flowers (my props), 6 bunches for £ 2, chose from whatever is left. I was fortunate, blue Irises, blue Hyacinths, pink Tulips, Tiger Lilies, what a delight, they perfume our whole house!
One of the many different compositions and combinations I tried.
Thanx, M, (*_*)

Styrax obassia
Japanese name comes from clusters of flowers looking like white clouds. It was found in Roppongi, Tokyo.
At Alligator River NWR. I took this from a boardwalk that runs over a nifty stretch of blackwater river swamp. The water looks like strong tea. Remarkably, there were very few mosquitoes out on the boardwalk, but lots of annoying deerflies.

Fragrant pears are fairly small and roughly oval, with long stems. The light green or yellow skin, with a reddish blush on some fruits, is thin and readily edible; the flesh is extraordinarily tender, crisp and juicy. The flavor is delicate, and different from that of most Asian pears, with a whiff of perfume. These may be eaten plain and ejoyed off the stem.
Stay tuned to see what I dreamed up...
