Fantastic Finalist Paddy! Hey you know what? Ron McEwan just posted pretty little flowers like this but theirs was a GROUND COVER they found at like 10 feet elevation near the Canadian Boarder in the USA. INTERESTING! I wonder if the flowers are related? Yours are stemmed!

So very pretty! Ron and Shirley were HERE AT OUR HOME YESTERDAY for 4 hours and lunch. It was terrific! Time just FLEW by!
