Question Author

Well done again cashier and to you elliemay1. Very happy with midnight now. Possibly is might and anagram of din in the middle. Excellent. Just one to go now "Nine comes next - how sweet (6) Can't parse trifle which somebody suggested.

Midnight mass!

Davemano

Maxy have you got an answer for 5 - I have one if not

Davemano

sorry that should be 2 not 5

Question Author

Hi Davemano. That is the only one I have left so please put me out of my misery!

Davemano

Ninth letter is 'I' - something that comes next .Rises'
There are Christmas Irises.

Maxymax464

Question Author

Not 100% happy with Irises because a bit like my topiary they are not specific to Christmas whereas all the other 49 answers are. However the fact that i is the ninth letter might help another answer.

Davemano

The Tall Bearded Iris is called the Christmas Iris because that is when it is available.

Maxymax464

Question Author

I didn't know that. However where does "how sweet"come into it!

Maxymax464

Question Author

I wonder if it could be infant which would parse with how sweet but I can't parse the rest of it!

Davemano

Wouldn't 'how sweet' be How pleasant to look at.

Maxymax464

Question Author

It could be Davemano - you are certainly making a case for irises but somehow I am doubtful if you would say "how sweet" to a tall bearded iris. Sorry to rain on your parade and I will certainly put that in if I can't think of anything better!

Davemano

It look like Father Christmas facial features.

Maxymax464

Question Author

Will definitely think on! Thanks for all your input.
