I can see this flower from our Living-Room window, and it happened to catch my eye in the afternoon as a shaft of feeble Winter sunlight fell on it. So out I went, camera in hand, to capture the moment...
It may only be one flower, but I think it's beautiful. Next year there will hopefully be many more.
And hopefully some in different colours. Blue is nice, but not easy to do justice to in a photograph!
The colour is gorgeous and you've photographed it very well. The plants will serve as a reminder of your holiday in France.
ReplyDeleteWhat a bit of magic. The colour looks very rich, you are lucky, thank you for showing it to us.
ReplyDeleteI love plants with a 'connection'. This one is pretty too!
ReplyDeleteIf your photo hasn't done justice to that flower I'm speechless {which is a rare thing}
ReplyDeleteI think its exquisite. That blue is one of my favourite colours :D
Wow! Love those photos!
ReplyDeleteVery nice with the different shades of blue to almost purple color...nature never ceases to amaze.
ReplyDeleteLovely I have started some seeds off they seem to be easy to grow.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty surprise in December, very lovely.

Oh what a lovely flower! The blue is stunning.
ReplyDeleteThat's a lovely blue Mark. I grew some orange and yellow osteospernums from seed this year and am buying a packet of purples and whites next year. I haven't come across the blue colour though - pity!
ReplyDeleteSpectacular singular bloom!
ReplyDeleteJust beautiful.....
ReplyDeleteWOW!!! can't describe it in anything other than that.
ReplyDeleteOlá Mark. onde posso comprar esta flor? Eu adoro azul? Obrigado
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry, but I do not know where you could buy this flower. I grew it from seeds acquired when on holiday in France.
