This is where we will display photos of flowers that have no designated pages yet. When you send in a photo, please try to have its name or species. We are trying to learn new flowers and would love to be able to recognize them by name. If you do research and lecture us on the flower, you will earn extra purrticipation points and may even find your lecture on a page of its own.

Here are some pictures sent in by some of our members. At some point, they may find their way to a special page all their own, but for now, you can enjoy them here.

In England, these are usually the last of the Spring flowers which grow
from bulbs - they flower during early to middle May. Many woodland areas are full of them - it makes the trees look as if they are growing through a blue carpet.

Meowmie tells us we should look after these which are in our own garden because the wild ones are now a protected specie because there are less of them nowadays. We love to sneak about them in Spring, but are always careful not to dig them up or trample them!
