Osteo....mum. I always remember the osteo part because it reminds me of osteoarthritis! I just don't remember the whole name of this flower.
|
Mountain bluet. I think it is also called centaurea.
|
Bleeding hearts still in bloom.
|
The new hydrangea. It is supposed to turn blue or pink depending upon the soil. Mine must be just right since it is turning purple!
|
I think this is Farewell-to-spring or clarkia. I planted a few seeds a few years ago and now it is trying to take over and has seeded itself down in the woods.
|
Money plant looks like the previous flower. It sets seed pods as shown. When you take off the dried coating of the seed a pretty paperthin disk remains which can be dried and put in arrangements. My great grandmother gave me seeds of this when I was little. She had the dried pods all over her house.
|
Tulip with two heads. I have no idea what that white spot is on the bottom of the right hand one!
|
One of the clematis is blooming.
|
I THINK this is camassia. I have had it for too long to remember the name and the plant stake is gone. I liked it for my "blue garden".
|
Verbena
|
Don't remember what this is either. It's also in the blue garden. It's about to bloom but looks pretty cool like this. I like the foliage.

Beautiful blooms. Speaking of flower names that remind you of other things...When I hear the word clematis, I think of chlamydia....an std;)

I put some lavender essential oil on all of my mosquito/fly bites and it helped a whole lot. if you have some maybe it will help? i feel like a hippie suggesting essential oils. : ) I love this post - so many pretty purple flowers, i can't decide which is my favorite!!
