The campus has quite a few of these, some as large as small trees. The flowers have a strong, almost pungent scent. I'd been wondering what they were for a while, and today a passerby identified them for me.
Flowering Cabbage

These make attractive foliage plants, but I don't think I'd seen one in flower before.
Snapdragon

OK, I admit it, I like these. They remind me of summers at home.

This was close to the main gate and a busy driveway -- I had to perch rather precariously to get it.
Daffodils and Friends

I really wasn't expecting daffodils here!
Citrus Blossom

I'm still waiting for a really great shot of this -- maybe next week when more blossom is open. The scent of the opened ones is amazingly sweet.
