In the u.s, these are called bachelor buttons, but elsewhere they are called coneflowers. A little something that I learned by doing 365. Correction: Cornflowers...still makes as much sense as a bachelor button, those are both strange names for flowers.
cornflowers, coneflowers are different... but loving this series, each new bloom is precious in spring, and then i like the profusion of summer, but after the storm the other day mine are not looking very good , we are expecting more rough weather in a couple of days.too . where is the blue background coming from?
Beautiful flower. I don't think corn flower is a strange name. I remember these flowers growing in the corn fields. When I was a child I used to pick them. My flowers were blue. http://365project.org/gijsje/365/2012-06-29
They don't grow in the fields any more (farmers don't like them), but sometimes you can find them in verges.
