Out in the garden, and in no particular order:

Correa 'Dusky Bells'
Erica verticillata (South African species heather)
Erica viridescens (South African species heather)
Alyogyne Hueglii (Australian purple hibiscus)
Cyclamen hybrids (red, white, plum purple)
Vinca (white, unknown rampant variety)
Lonicera japonica Halliana
Polygala myrtifolia grandiflora
Pelargonium hybrids (two in planters)
Mesembryanthemum (yellow flowered shrubby species, name forgotten!)
Bergenia
Chrysocoma Coma-Aurea ('Golden Heads', South African sub-shrub with
yellow button fls)
Gazania hybrids
Ulex flore pleno (double gorse)
Hebe hybrids (reddish purple large flowered)
Rosemary (dark blue low growing form)
Euryops pectinatus
Grevillea lanigera
Grevillea rhyolitica
Grevillea x Canberra Gem
Leptospermum scoparium Red Damask (to my surprise, and heavy with bud)
Watsonia John May's Special (creamy pink, small fls)
Escallonia Iveyi (white, dark green leaves)
Primula vulgaris (common primrose)
Primula Wanda
Eriocephalus africanus (South African rosemary)
Osothamnus ?ledifolius

One or two camellias with buds showing colour (but elsewhere down here
some early varieties have been out for several weeks). No daffs, but
they've been out in a friend's garden for several days. How much of
this is due to our being in the far SW of Cornwall, or the mild
weather, I don't know. No air frost yet this autumn/winter, although a
couple of ground frosts recently (minimum 1C so far).

Happy Christmas (what's left of it) and a successful New Year in the
garden to everyone!
