Earlier this summer I came across a patch of stock in a garden I was visiting. This is from Teleflora: "A symbol of happy life and contented existence, the stock flower, with its sweet, heady-scented blooms, is native to Southwestern Greece and the Mediterranean. Typically found in white, pink, red or lilac, stock is also called gillyflower or Virginia stock". This is not a common flower around gardens in my area except in commercial use by florists who use primarily white, cream or yellow as filler in floral arrangements. I'm very fond of the fragrance and this patch was the most gorgeous purple shade in the late afternoon sun. All comments and critiques appreciated.

What a coincidence - I noticed a lovely display of stock around one of our monuments today and thought I may go bqck and get some shots. It is quite prevalent in my area.BUT I don't need to now - this is so beautiful and such a deep colour. I can almost smell the fragrance.
My mother always referred to it as 'Night Scented Stock" and the scent does intensify at night.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
