I am going nuts this week. Here's a blog post with two pictures. That's as eloquent as I can muster today. Which might be enough to get some of us through the day. I hope.
beautiful wildflowers, i'm sure it must be nice to walk in a whole field of wild flowers like your header and discover this beautiful flower, i love the deep purple and shocking yellow contrasts.
Love the vivid purple and the little flashes of green against the brown-and-grey of the rest of your landscape. Hope the rest of your week helps you find a little more sanity. :)
It's enough when it's such a richly colored Pulsatilla. I like how silky the buds feel. Mine passed all too quickly this year because of the unseasonable heat.
Benjamin - you post & pictures reminded me why I loved Pasque flowers. Mine didn't make it through the construction project - so I'll have to put it on my wish list this year. An early bloomer always gives me hope!
I would love to have this color Pasque flower in my garden! I will be on the look-out now. I currently have a deep wine colored group and a native grouping that has shades of pale blue and pink. They are all so lovely, and unusual - two things I adore in a plant :)
aloha benjamin,

A welcome sight they are, even if your week is driving you 'round the bend.

ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful Pasque Flower Benjamin.I love how the purple magenta right in the center of the yellow mirrors the petals. Beautiful picture.

ReplyDeleteLovely deep purple color, definitely improves the color spectrum of any garden. ~bangchik
ReplyDeleteEvery year I say I must plant more of them, and every year, I don't. Dreams are easier than the pain of ups and downs - getting up and down, that is.
