I'd probably like summer blooms much better. :)<BR/><BR/>Turtleheart, love the frottage!

Around here, it is so blazing hot and dry that anything that can bloom gets my admiration (though not much was in bloom at Roundrock when I was out there today).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10013142.post-1123435217442384972005-08-07T12:20:00.000-05:002005-08-07T12:20:00.000-05:00That's a beautiful flower.

Sounds prettier in French though, huh? :)<BR/><BR/>Jenn it's a wild flower, but I think some people do grow these in their gardens. It's growing here along with some sunflowers that look like black-eyed susans - the colors are beautiful together but I can't seem to get a good pic of the whole effect.Ruralityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06616461213179182660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10013142.post-1123342888842731362005-08-06T10:41:00.000-05:002005-08-06T10:41:00.000-05:00Is that a nursery plant or a wild volunteer?Lovely...Is that a nursery plant or a wild volunteer?<BR/><BR/>Lovely flowers!Jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15597630887713954960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10013142.post-1123335966490865532005-08-06T08:46:00.000-05:002005-08-06T08:46:00.000-05:00Great shot!I think it is also called Tall Bellflow...Great shot!<BR/><BR/>I think it is also called Tall Bellflower if I am not mistaken.
