In the garden late December/early January

I ventured into the garden to see what was braving late December/early January weather and then got sidetracked so am posting this now.  Above is one of the Nemesia Melody series...
...and here's another...
...and another.  They are good value plants.
Hellebores were in flower. Here is Hello White Pearl.
While Hellebore Ericsmithii Winter Sunshine was just opening up.  The hellebores in pots always seem to flower before the ones in the ground.
There was a cyclamen coum and the start of some snowdrops.
Jasminium nudiflorum (winter flowering jasmine) was bringing its own sunshine to a dull corner.
Camellia Yoimachi flowers enticed me down to the bottom of the garden to look at them more closely.
The ever faithful winter flowering honeysuckle was also in flower.  Of course, a week or so after taking these photos, we had a week of frost and temperatures only just above freezing during the day. Everything was flattened by it, but has recovered.
