          Narcissus "Bridal Crown" has just started flowering. I cut a stem to bring indoors so I could enjoy the fragrance. There are six flower heads on this one stem which was too fat to fit my normal single-stem vase.

                          Red flowering currant. Not the fruiting kind, but one I inherited when moving home.
