Ursula, there are three patches of them in my urban block that somehow have survived development. When the leaves emerge each year, I put hanging baskets over them to prevent them being trampled. This one comes up every year through plastic lining and gravel.

Elaine, I am having trouble photographing them well. For some reason the camera keeps on concentrating on the background leaving the flowers out of focus even though it is set on macro. Just now, I put a kitty litter tray behind and tried again. A bit better.




The problem is that when you are young your life it is ruined by your parents. When you are older it is ruined by your children.
