New Orchid

I bought myself a new plant this weekend. It's a dendrobium orchid. Isn't it pretty?

Ranunculus in Cream

I planted some ranunculus bulbs a while ago, not knowing what colours I had. The recent rain has definitely helped them thrive and I have a couple of beautiful cream flowers. I had a little bit of a play and came up with one photo and one photo with the colour boosted. I'm posting the second one because I really like the way the petals change colour to show where the light is hitting the flower.

Pretty Flowers

Some of my ranunculus have finally flowered. They're a lovely cream colour and they've got so many petals. I think they look a little like a crinoline petticoat upside down (or what I imagine an upside down crinoline would look like). So pretty!!
