I'm dizzy looking at all these great photos. Might have to add some to my orders.....

'Grape Echo' may not be the most stunning, but it blooms on and off all season. It gets an "A" for effort.



Also Designing Woman.. I adore this one.

The surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that it has never tried to contact us.

Designing Woman is beautiful! Lovely pictures.

I am bouncing up and down frustrated at not being able to capture the color right on this one, it is so lovely. But here goes with what I have.

It isn't really blue, it is purple/lavender/violet. My camera just doesn't capture those colors well and I am starting the search for an additional camera. But it would be gorgeous as full-on blue, also. Smiling

I now consider this one to be a rescue, not a filch. Opened up with just half a top and no color on that side. With some TLC and a different place for it to grow, it will be beautiful all the way around. Lovey dubby

Filching is taking away secretly and by extreme stealth, but I like "followed me home" better. Big Grin Although, as I asked the guy first before heading over with the trusty garden fork... Sticking tongue out No matter, it will still be much happier with me than all jumbled up with some yellow Plicatas.
