Fatsia japonica

looks like little pearls in the centre of that flower

oh yeah, that little flower is gorgeous!!!

I guess that because they're so out of scale with the rest of the plant I've not looked at them properly before.....

A brilliant close up Meanie :o))

I agree Meanie, the flowers look weird on the plant. I've never looked properly before either....beautiful close up of a surprisingly lovely little bloom!

In reality, because of its size, the flower is more of a curiosity than anything else.

Well, yes, you're right, but you've made me see it for the first time! Lovely!

It's the first time that I've bothered looking too!

Meanie:

Another great close up!

Thanks Delonix!

Fantastic shot, Meanie :p

Thanks Tommymoo!
