Here's my second-last monthly post of the flowers currently in my garden.
First rose of spring:
Unidentified deep red rose.
Cymbidium orchid - Peter Pan X Snow Eagle "Malcolm":
These flowers are looking a bit sad, but still hanging on.
Vireya "Princess Alexandra":
Grevillea "John Evans":
Callistemon:
This one has only a couple of flowers at the moment, despite being a fairly large plant.
Lemon tree:
Another callistemon:
This one has a few flowers, but mainly on a branch which has been broken in the wind.
Thickleaf aeonium, Aeonium arboreum:
A little bit of a cheat, as none of the flowers are actually open yet. But the buds are getting ready to pop. The flowers will be yellow.
Eucalyptus leucoxylon (yellow gum) 'Eukie Dwarf':
Has lots of buds, but this was the only flower I could find open. It looks like it has been bashed around a bit by the weather though.
Crassula ovata:
Rosemary:
Lavender:
This one is absolutely covered in flowers.
Mexican sage (Salvia leucantha):
Bethel sage - Salvia involucrata 'Bethelii':
Fringe flower, Loropetalum chinense var rubrum:
Violets (Viola odorata):
This one looks a bit ratty!
Jonquils:
Bergenia:
Spring really is coming, and here's proof - jasmine flowers (Jasminum officinale):

When I looked at your blog this morning it was winter. Tonight the photos are full of colour from your beautiful garden.
What a great collection of blooms already opening up. I love that jasmine with white flowers on red branches. You got a good photo of the jonquils with that transparent "leaf" in the background. s this your old or your new garden?
