A riot of lichens and moss on some apple trees in need of pruning-
And finally a tiny 1" indoor bloom on my Maxillaria tenuifolia-
Well, only a little more than a month left until spring, yippee!

I was surprised to find some Hellebores that were open, always hard to photograph because of their tendency to weep-

Catkins in full bloom on some hazelnut trees-
The reliable winter bloom of heather Erica carnea-

OMG...those Geranium leaves are so pretty...I absolutely love them...do you know what the species is?
