Cornflower Blues by filsie65

Cornflower Blues

Took this in the garden earlier today... it isn't the best cornflower I've ever seen but it rather reminded me of a Scottish thistle and I liked the delicate violety-blue of the petals in front of the wall.

Amazed and delighted by the number of people who took a look at or even commented on the much-posted Kings Cross ceiling... Gosh thank you so much - you are all wonderful people as well as gorgeous and talented. Have a wonderful (long) weekend whatever you get up to x
Beautiful blue.

I love the colours in this photo. I only recently learned that these are cornflowers - I used to call them thistles when I was a child and then later on, I knew that was wrong but didn't know what they actually were!

Oh, never seen this before. The color is beautiful and cornflower seems too common a name for it!

Oh - I love these. When Greg died, the funeral home gave us a packed of seeds. I had no idea what they were until they grew and flowered - cornflowers :)
