Did I ever mention how much I love blue flowers?
Salvia and Clematis
Wild Blue Indigo - another one of my favorites!
Comfrey
More Iris
Lavender
Scabiosa just starting to open
Still waiting for my Black and Blue Salvia, Morning Glory and Russian Sage to bloom!

You and I share a love of blue flowering plants Netty.  They are just sooo striking in a garden. Have you thought of buying a ceanothus? They have the lovliest blue blooms that last for ages.

Everything looks gorgeous Netty. Blue is such a pop-out color in the garden isn't it?
