A Wall Creeping Beauty in Pink...

Did I tell you that I love Clematis? You rarely see them here and I don't know why. They just need full sun but the climate should not be the problem. Strange.
There are so many variations but I did find only 3 or 4 different versions. Again strange. They make such a lovely climber, their leaves look so delicate and their blossoms are just lovely. Maybe I have to look around more...

Wild Larkspur - endangered***

A couple of weeks ago I discovered something very special in a field: wild larkspur which is an endangered species here in Germany. Additionally it was not only one colour blooming but THREE different ones!! It was difficult to photograph as there was a fence around that field. Two days later they had mewn the field for some un-plausible reason and the blooms were gone...

The Colour is Blue, Blue, Blue and very poisonous...

This is one of the most poisonous plants in Europe and its toxins can be adopted already via the skin. Famous for "Chinese" murders - but the colour is an incredible blue....

So blue like Heaven...

Nature's compositions are breathtaking - this seems to be designed by an interior designer - look at this charming colour combination:

Anemone Blanda - A heavenly blue little Flower

This is another little plant that I could hardly identify - but I found it: Anemone blanda (Greek Thimbleweed) looks like a miniature of a marguerite but its a low growing plant which comes from southern Europe.
