No you don't, you're incredibly clever. I couldn't even think about building a house or crocheting flowers. It's the north/south divide. Your flowers will be lasting long after ours have packed up and died in the drought and heat.

The nice smelling flowers honey suckle, jasmine and sweet peas. Lots of others but possibly not for much longer if the hot dry spell lasts any length of time.

In flower on 1st January 2023 :-
Lots of flowers on the single petalled camellia and one flower on the multi-petalled one (always later).
Hellebores with white and pink flowers
Vinca/periwinkle
Daisies.
Not much else. The fuchsias and pineapple sage have been frosted and look very sad. Hope they'll recover.
Flower buds on a few daffs/narcissi.
No sign of the snowdrops or crocus.
In the GH the primula obconica are still flowering and a YS red chrysanthemum. Bijou mangetout flowers.
In the house - 2 cymbidium orchids and several Christmas cactus.

Forgot to have a look, definitely Hellebores, lots of (some?) shrubs getting ready and some snowdrops just peeping through.

From memory.....
Red and yellow polyanthus.
Winter jasmine
White iberis
I will go a huntin' later as it's dry and sunny.

Well I had a good look around this morning and could only find the Viburnum × bodnantense shrub identified by Martin last year and a very small weed in a polytunnel.
There are some geraniums flowering in the conservatory and orchids in the living room.

Funnily enough this thread popped into my mind yesterday when the kids and I were in the garden. We were searching for flowers but only found viburnum bodnantense and viburnum tinus eve price in flower. Better luck next month.

My orchid is in bloom! I'm overjoyed as I thought I might have killed it off, but it seems they all thrive on neglect - I've basically ignored them, thinking they were dying, when I spent too much time tending to them!! They're all in bud now, and the first flower appeared Jan first!
