The Book of Flowers

 

Here is a picture from my latest project which I have just begun, it is called The Book of Flowers and  will contain some native flowers of New Zealand.  This is a specimen from our neighbour's pink manuka or Leptospernum scoparium.  The flowers range from white to pink and red and it is a favourite with the bees.
