Picked (very carefully) from my daughter's garden and taken home to photograph indoors.

I love how nature makes symmetry even in a prickly plant like this one!

I hope everyone had a lovely holiday (even if you don't celebrate Christmas).

I think I've caught up with everyone after my short break.......if not, I will do soon........I hope :-)
