Spotted in a neighbour's garden, this "massing" freesia hybrid has multiple flowers and a wonderfully vibrant hot pink colour - but not much perfume.

Purple and gold - a great combination.

Several years ago I purchased bulbs to grow these freesias in my garden.  The multiple flowers are beautiful, but sadly this variety has hardly any perfume.

The first week of spring - and the freesias are out, with their gorgeous perfume and petals splashed with colour.  Photos taken by Georgie in Perth, Western Australia.
