Delphiniums come in so many shades of blue. This is one of my favorites.
Although used for some herbal medicines, all parts of this plant are toxic to humans and cattle.
In Transylvania, it was used to keep witches from the stables !

Taken with Panasonic FZ28. Thanks for viewing and any comments.
Happy Friday everyone !
(unless you're a bad witch)

Nice shot here Lyn! I love these plants too with their tall towers of blooms. I have to use a trellis here to keep them from breaking over with some of the winds we get.

I love delphiniums Lyn and these are beauties and dark vignetting sets them off perfectly.

Never argue with an idiot. They'll drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience.

Spend a few minutes each day being grateful for what you have and who you have to share it with.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
