Not really.
I don't know the name of this torch like flower but it is beginning to bloom everywhere in our City now. The blue is much more intense than some years. I thought you might like a bit of Spring today.
Sorry this didn't upload as sharp and blue as my original shot.
Have a great Sunday and it won't be BLUE MONDAY.
BEAUTIFUL!!!
ReplyDeleteand I like the little lavender stamens poking out too.
Wonderful colors - very unique bush! Nice capture!
ReplyDeletelovely little blue flowers. the whole plant looks like it could be part of the Cacti family. I wonder...
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful and unusual flower.
