Christmas Posie

 Yesterday while the Christmas Dinner was cooking away I took a stroll round the garden and gathered these little flowers to brighten our table. I was amazed at how many I found! I have taken the photos from three sides so all the flowers can be seen. This is definitely a most unusual year for many reasons.
