The Garden in March

Just like last month, it was a rainy morning so there are a lot of damp flower photos here. Many, many flower photos. Skip if that's not your thing!

Let's see how far we can get around the alphabet.

Abutilon with bee:

Aloe:

Anemone:

Yes, our first spring flower, and we are only half way through autumn.

Apple blossom!

Now I am really confused. It is definitely autumn, apples should not be flowering.

Belladonna lilies:

Pink ones, and a white one.

Bergenia:

Canna:

Crepe myrtle:

Only one of the five trees has any flowers, and this is all of them!

Dahlias:

"Bonnie Fire" above, "Mystic Dreamer" below.

Eschscholzia californica, Californian poppies, are out but because it was cool and dim when I took these photos, they were all closed up. Also there are some eremophilas, but I didn't get a shot of them either.

Fuchsia:

Several geraniums, but somehow I didn't photograph any.

Hebe:

Honeysuckle:

Looks like I have nothing for "I" or "J".

Kangaroo apple:

Kangaroo paw:

Lavender:

Lemon tree:

Nothing for "M" either!

Here's a strange one. We were given some nerine bulbs by a friend, but this is what has come up:

One large red flower, and two smaller weird-looking pink ones.

There are flowers on the orange tree, but they look just like the lemon flower above.

Paintbrush lily, Haemanthus coccineus:

Penstemon:

Propeller plant, Crassula falcata:

No "Q".

Red hot pokers:

Rosemary:

And heaps of roses, of course.

One of quite a few different salvias:

No "T" or "U". The Viburnum tinus is flowering but I didn't manage to get an in-focus picture of it.

Weigela:

No "X" or "Y", and only buds on the zinnias.

So a few letters of the alphabet missing,  but we covered most of it.
