Color Your World: 120 Days of Crayola: Blue Violet
The Blue Violet Flowers
A Beautiful Garden in West Hoathly, UK
I do not know what these flowers are. I think they are primroses. They were a beautiful iridescent Blue Violet! It was just one of thousands of beautiful plants that I saw in the English gardens on my English Garden Tour 2015!
Just to let you know, I’ve been thinking of what I would do with the lottery money that now is up to over 1 billion. One of the things I would do is purchase a garden and lovely little cottage in the UK and hang out with gardening friends that know all the latin names of flowers. Perhaps they would have a class on such at the local Woman’s Institute meeting, for transplants like me, who would like to be in the know. I can only dream! Well, maybe I could start on one flower. If the flower shown is a primrose, it is called primula vulgaris. How could anything so beautiful be vulgar?
This post is just one of many in the Color Your World: 120 Days of Crayola Challenge! Enjoy!

One of my favourite colours! And a beautiful garden with that. I wish it were yours!
Me too!!!
Not primroses – don’t think they ever come in blue. They look like delphiniums , which grow rather tall on a stalk and range from white to indigo on a blue scale. Perhaps yours had fallen over?
Delphinium? You can tell how hopeless I am!
What a wonderful “wish” if you won the lottery – so, is there an English cottage and garden in your future this morning?? 😃
No! Bummer!
Me neither 😦
