Early spring garden

In the garden right now.

Kumquat buds and flowers  Here is a yellow citrus flower. At least we think so but this needs further investigation because nothing on the internet says there is such a thing.

Possibly Scarlet pimpernel (Anagallis arvensis)dsc00737 Here is a Mulberry almost ripe!dsc00735 Here is a Banksia cone. The small bumps have seeds inside.dsc00727 Here is a White Paper Daisy / Rhodanthe floribunda.

Here is a creeping vine. We do not know what it is yet. Maybe a Jasmin of some kind, possibly Jasminum Polyanthum 

Citrus buds and flowers And lastly the citrus flowers and buds. They smell lovely but do not smell citrus at all.
