Please forgive my absence, I've been very busy in my garden lately. I do want to share my new blue and purple flowers (pericallis senetti) with y'all. They are some of the potted ones I've purchased. Most of my flowers are from seed. (and all my veges are) We've planted buckets full this year but I couldn't resist these wonderfully happy foofys. Hope you'll enjoy. -Christie

They look very pretty in the sunshine Christie. I would have moved the heavy pot further left to avoid that pillar. Then it would have been perfect!

These are beautiful, Christie. You certainly have your work cut out for you with all the planting, maintenance and harvesting. Good for you!

The thing that goes the farthest, towards making life worthwhile, it costs the least and does the most, is just a pleasant smile.

I like the contrast of the golden sunshine on the pavers Christie, looks good against the purple.
I know these flowers as Cineraria and I expect you will have these for many years as they self seed very well. When I moved to this house over 25 years ago there was a good crop of them in the garden. All these years later I still have their descendants !

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

Christie - Beautiful flowers and capture! Try to keep these cool and partially shaded in the warmer months ahead, as they do not tolerate summer sun. I had some similar ones that were pleasing to view, but kept them in the sun and they called it quits. I like the lighting in this image. ~Thad

Emptiness is not nothingness. It is simply the opposite of full of it.
