Thanks Hester, will post a photo that I took this morning of one of the flowers that has got really intense purple veins in the petals - such a crime to pick them and throw away the flowers but I'm not patient enough to just pluck out the stamens. There's quite a variation in the colours of the flowers and they have a gorgeous scent too.

Aren't they beautiful. Exciting.
