I have got some news. Over 20 years ago I planted a tree gardenia. In that time it has managed to grow to be slightly taller than me. And never flowered. In the last week it has flowered. It smells glorious.

Lovely. Also daphne, have you smelt that?

I’ve got a white Daphne. It will soon be in flower. It’s a Winter flower with good scent. I’ve got three flowers off the tree gardenia here in the library/office/sewing room with me. I don’t heat this room. So the scent is wonderful.
