The day started out very gloomy, dark, damp, and foggy.
The temperature is up...but supposed to drop again this evening.
After deciding to do a "blue" post today...I realized how hard it was going to be to find a lot of blue flowers!! So...bear with me...and enjoy the trip...
 |
| Usually the "Scillia" is my first spring bloom. I inherited a few bunches from my sister, when she swapped me some day lilies...in my very early days of gardening. |
 |
| But, I do have a few patches at the lake,as well....... I find them very cheery...when the rest of the garden, is just rolling over and yawning |
Love this pic of a broken pot......with a succulent..forget-me-nots.......ribbon grass......and some violets mixed in...
 |
| The forget-me-nots also come in white....I know,this is supposed to be a blue post....but throw me a bone...I am desperate for blue flowers!! |

| Are these violas blue or violet??? Guess I will have to do a purple post soon... |
 |
| These are Lungwort...another spring bloom...kinda blue? |
 |
| Forget-me-nots and violas together |
 |
| Cranesbill Geraniums...another gift from my sister.. |
These Bachelor Buttons are at the lake...dug up and shared by one of my neighbours at home...don't you just love plant swapping??
And they can be truly spectacular...trouble is they only last one day...and I am not always there when they bloom!! But..I was fortunate to get these shots...
 |
| Now we are talking BLUE!!! These delphiniums were glorious last summer at home......hopefully they will survive this weird winter weather, and prosper next summer.. |
The Balloon flower bud, is awesome.....actually looks like a balloon!!! Then opens to a lovely flower.....if deadheaded, will continue to flower into the Fall
In closing...how about the clear blue waters at the cottage...with the seagulls having a snack...
Hope this "blue" brightened your day...even a
little bit............
:o)
