Monkshood

These buds have pretty much remained unchanged for the past week. Too bad because when they open, they're gorgeous --- a purple monk's hood. There are some interesting details so if you have a moment take a peak at the enlarged view.

This pic from last October went over well! http://365project.org/sunnygreenwood/365/2011-10-21

Many thanks for dropping by.

These are very neat looking! They look like a head bowed in prayer. Hope they get the chance to open for you.
