| Besides the blue Hydrangea, the only other flower visible is the white bloom and it may be a variety of Dahlias (Dahlia) ~ I'm an old gal who still loves playing in the dirt! ~ Playing in the dirt is my therapy ... and I'm in therapy a lot! |

| Thanks - it looked like there might be small tiny flowers as well? |

| I can't see any small, tiny flowers in the photo you posted, but it may be my eyesight. Perhaps you can upload another picture with those and someone may recognize them. ~ I'm an old gal who still loves playing in the dirt! ~ Playing in the dirt is my therapy ... and I'm in therapy a lot! |

| I wondered if the other was freesia? |

| I can't see any other flowers but check out some of the Freesia images here in our database for comparison: https://garden.org/plants/sear... ~ I'm an old gal who still loves playing in the dirt! ~ Playing in the dirt is my therapy ... and I'm in therapy a lot! |

| I don't see anything that looks like a Freesia, but I think I see a Primula. Primroses (Primula) |

@zuzu LOL, I'm going in for my second cataract surgery tomorrow morning so hopefully I will be seeing better in a few weeks once the eye has healed. I still only see the hydrangea and dahlia.  ~ I'm an old gal who still loves playing in the dirt! ~ Playing in the dirt is my therapy ... and I'm in therapy a lot! |

| I'm so happy for you, Lin. It can be a life-changing procedure and I think you'll see a huge difference in just days, not weeks. The flowers I'm looking at are on the right side of the bouquet above the Dahlia. It's a white or cream-colored Primula. Judging by the leaves closest to that sprig of blooms, however, I guess it could also be a white or cream-colored Kalanchoe. Kalanchoes (Kalanchoe) |

| @zuzu, I see a huge difference in my right eye now that the cataract has been removed in that eye; everything is so much brighter and clearer! I noticed the difference right away but had a few days of feeling like something was in my eye, which I was told is a normal sensation after cataract removal ... possibly the incision, I'm not sure. I look forward to being able to drive again once this second eye is done; I probably could drive now but my focus is still a bit out of wack due to the remaining cataract. I do see a hazy blur of something, above and to the right of the dahlia but I have no idea what it is.  ~ I'm an old gal who still loves playing in the dirt! ~ Playing in the dirt is my therapy ... and I'm in therapy a lot! |

| I could also see other flower, (blue arrow), the primula/freesia lookealike thing is too fuzzy to identify, like trying to identify an UFO or cryptic creatures. there is another bloom in there may be, (red arrow), it could be a Bupleurum (B. rotundifolium perhaps)  |

I'm seeing those blurry ones too, but won't even hazard a guess...and I had both eyes done over 20 years ago.  |
