As for the flower, it seems to be a defective Star of Bethlehem in that it only has five petals whereas every other one blooming in my garden has the typical six-petal flower form of Ornithogalum umbellatum. The flowers are gorgeous and have volunteered themselves all over my garden.
I'll be posting this to Macro Monday over at Lisa's Chaos... you should check it out! Her blog is pretty terrific!

ReplyDeleteYou can never go wrong with 'sweet' and 'star' in the same title, Victoria! :) I love them both.
ReplyDeleteThe comment I left yesterday was eaten alive, Victoria, but anything 'sweet' and 'star' put together like this has got to be heavenly.
ReplyDeleteHopefully we're back to 'normal' now with Blogger?!
Wonderful pictures on your blog Victoria..... very well done.
