blue nicandra

Out on a local walk with my camera, I saw these flowers beside the path.

I knew I had seen them before.
I knew that I then did not know their name.
I knew that somebody on 365 told me the answer.

I searched for ages in my stats without finding the photo.

Finally I found it - I had been looking for purple, not blue.

It was Bep @gijsje who knew.

I will not forget it now!

It was back in 2013 and you said you had posted a shot of this flower in 2012. I cannot copy the ref on my iPad but you were the only one who knew what it was!

It takes @gijsje to help you with flower names! Good research Hazel!
