Oh! Oh! Oh! Words are not enough Paul.
I am a strong believer in the simple fact is that what matters in this life is how we treat others. I think that's what living is all about. Not what I've done in my life but how I've treated others. ~~ Sharon Brown

Interesting Plant, YES but what is it. I looked at the database and there is a Sea Holly (Eryngium maritimum)

Thanks for posting the database picture, Marilyn - I had wondered if Sea Thrift were somehow related to Sea Holly, but now I can see they are really different from each other! Thumbs up But, such a beautiful flower ... I will also have to check it out to see if it might grow here.

Lovely blooms! Hurray!
