Day 7 and the final day of Cathy’s yearly ‘A Week of Flowers’ challenge. It’s been a lovely way to brighten up this first week of December, showcasing the wonderfully colourful blooms of summer.

I couldn’t find another special flower for this last day, as I have already shown the best ones.
My garden ( I use this term reservedly) is not large, and it’s a constant battle keeping the mare’s tails and brambles under control so I can at least try to be a gardener. But there have been moderate successes this year and I am proud to add them to this last day of The Week of Flowers.
I am no good with names, this was a very pretty rocky plant that surprised me with this lovely flower…
One of my early efforts at growing a dahlia. I was so was proud of this one…
This is a cutting of an orange blossom. It’s just a twig, and I never expected to see a flower so soon…
This seems to be a dahlia, but not sure where it came from… but it’s most welcome!
I believe this is a sambuca. I fell in love with the black foliage and dainty flowers. Hopefully, it will grow and be wonderful!
I just found this stunning camelia… It’s not a healthy specimen, as you can see from the black spots on the leaves, but the flowers are just heavenly…
I really cannot wait to start messing about in the garden again…
