On Wed I'm heading to Canberra for the National Folk Festival & expect lots more when I get back next Tuesday.
It only has one (very mature) bud so I'll get another flower before I go.

3 flowers as they were on Wednesday - at the moment they are sleeping as it's almost midnight & the oldest looks a bit elderly ... Attachments:

So beautiful and cheerful. I wonder why there are no more buds?

The seed geraniums that were in my window box last summer are blooming inside the glass until we get some warmer weather.   |
