I think that my favorite blue in the garden is linum, the common
perennial blue flax. This is linum lewisii, the native North American variety. The annual scarlet flax is also a terrific red, but that isn't blooming yet. This was taken using a 25mm extension tube on a Canon 24-105L IS for the macro effect.

The shallow DOF really sets it off. |

And the shot of individual flowers makes one look harder and appreciate more. One of my favourite sights was a field full of flax, a son dragged me to look at it. I had no idea he had any idea of such beauty! Mary |

Impossible as I would just be too pleased to be there that I would never be blue. |

A very nice lady is going to send my some seed from her's when it makes seed. I was in a tornado and lost everything,and got my back broke. So I have been re-doing my yard. I'm new on here...love flowers. yard_lady52 |
