    I've never seen columbine with those colors before. They are so beautiful, but then again I do have a soft spot for columbine. Also the flax plant is very nice. I've never seen one of those, I like it very much. Anything blue always catches my eye. Thanks for sharing.

    Gorgeous Aquilegias, Sherry. I just stared and stared.
    I wouldn't mind having one of those flax clumps either, they look very nice.
    Your lovely collectyion of flowers really seem to be beginning to show off now. Keep those wonderful pictures coming.
    We've missed you here.
