A blog where I post a mixture of photos that I have taken and find amusing, interesting, artistic, surprising or strange.

HINT OF SPRING
We have had a couple of days of warmer, fine weather in Melbourne and a few of the bulbs have started flowering. Just a whiff of Spring, even before Winter has set in for good...
The blue flowers are Felicia amelloides (blue daisy, blue marguerite), which is a species of flowering plant of the family Asteraceae, native to South Africa. F. amelloides is synonymous with, and formerly known as, F. aethiopica, Aster amelloides, Aster capensis, and Aster coelestis.
Yes. there are some strange flowerings at the moment. I have blossoms on a tree that still has autumn leaves. Beautiful collection of flowers in your photo.
