Following Jacksparrow's lovely pic (see previous page) of his dog rose flower, this morning being extremely clement I took myself over to my wildlife patch to check my dog rose

for same.
Nothing doing but I have found a beautifully rampant specimen of Woody Nightshade

resplendent with lotsa gleaming red berries. Thrilled to bits

I can't beat a Woody Nightshade

but while clearing a few leaves I came across an Orange Hawkweed and a patch of violets in flower.
