This is a super-tiny flower, so delicate, growing through and along a fence, forming a wall of deep green leaves and these tiny white blossoms. So pretty, and so paper-thin.

A beautiful portrait. You’ve captured that paper delicacy so well, and those half-coronets are lovely. Potato vine? If so mine spends its life trying to take up residence on my roof.
Recovery is going ok. It’s slow. I’m doing my exercises and am getting more movement all the time, which is excellent. And I’m off most of the heavy painkillers now too. Looking forward to Christmas holidays! How are you?
That sounds like great progress, although no doubt you’re longing for it to be greater! I’m fine, although I’m not a fan of heat – and my life seems to be shaped by 5 minutes with … all sorts of things. RegularRandom swallows up all my experiences and leaves me nothing else to blog about. A hardware store on Saturday!
Pretty little thing isn’t it? I got a photo of some last month which will make its appearance in my ‘Advent Calendar’ – definitely potato vine, solanum laxum ‘Album’ which creeps over trees and shrubs and apparently according to Meg, roofs 😀
I am a sucker for small and delicate (though I like big and blowsy as well 🙂 ) We have this Star of Bethlehem in our conservatory but it’s not looking too healthy right now.

Yes apparently it’s potato vine. I had no idea. Thank you, I quite like these shots myself. 😊

I had no idea it was potato vine until I saw Meg’s and your comments. I need to pop by and visit your calendar!

Thanks PP. I’m getting better. Took some photos today which was lovely. My friend set things up for me and I clicked away for half an hour or so.

Pleased to hear the shoulder is improving. I bet you were longing to get back out with your camera.

I am! I haven’t ventured out of the house with it yet, that’s a bit too adventurous for my shoulder just yet. Only some short shoots at home.
