Thanks girlies! Ooh thanks for that Fp.......:o)) I like all the hairs and veins on the flowers here........my camera is a Panasonic Lumix FZ28...its great to use Fp...really easy, but has lots of different settings if you want to use it in more depth.

At the risk of being really boring Janey...I do harp on about this...but did you know that this plant is very poisonous? Like, you need to wash your hands after touching it.......?

Thanks Karen......I'm really careful with it.....think it may be it's last year though as it's a large plant with few flowers....so it's taking up too much room in my border......:o)
