Freesias, the flower of my childhood.

Thanks for reminding me of freesias @Sarcelle .

I think they were my mother’s favourite mainly because of their scent.

I love their scent.

I remember my mother giving me some freesia scented shampoo when I was about 9 and ever since then I’ve had a sentimental (or is it scentimental ) connection to this flower and its scent.

I think this is some type of lilac. This one’s growing in the middle of a patch of ice plant along the roadside.

That’s a beautiful shade Rob .

I have read that there are 25,000 - 30,000 different species of orchid .

That is marvellous .

Just to have one with all its beauty would be enough for me .

This is just one of the bounteous species , the Cattleya trianae .

And how beautiful it is .
