Photo showing a blue flower borne at the tip of a flowerhead. Around it are one wrinkled, faded blue floret and several immature pink ones. The mature flower has pink stamens bearing purple anthers. The flowerhead is covered in tiny, hairy flower bracts where other florets previously were. In the background, two other blurry flowerheads can be seen. Watermark identifying photographer as Geneviève Laurin.

Some more summer color to liven up winter.
I miss doing my daily macrophotography walk, so I am going through my archives for photos I took but had yet to get a good look at.

Original photo, not enhanced in any way. The blue was so rich & intense in colour.

Sous le souffle du large, une fleur bleue se dresse, tournée vers l’horizon.
Elle contemple le monde, immobile, comme si le vent portait ses pensées.
Dans la patience du rivage se dévoile une force tranquille.
Merci d’être là.

A thick flower spike of blue flowers with red stamens protruding from a green stalk. The stamens are covered in water droplets from the fine mist
A few days in #Dunedin. It's cool and it's damp. I am loving it. A fine mist this morning covered this #echium flower.

A honey bee collects nectar from the densely packed pink flowers of Echium wildpretii. The tubular blossoms are arranged along a tall inflorescence covered in fine hairs, with greenhouses reflecting in the background.
A row of tall Echium wildpretii plants growing along a greenhouse wall at the Bonn Botanic Garden. The plants have silver-gray rosettes and striking pink flower spikes, all in full bloom under a sunny sky.

Our garderns tested overwintering under climate change—most plants survived ❄️🌱 Now buzzing with pollinators 🐝

I believe this is Echium pininana. It's a very strange and beautiful plant, beloved of hummingbirds and bees.

Echium webbii at my local plant nursery. I like the idea of one of these as a dinky version of E. pininana but expensive if it is only biennial or doesn’t go through a hard winter.

#Echium which name I always need to look up under ’huge blue spiked flowers’! They grow huge and spread fervently all along the NoCal coast.
I drove past this yard that designed and installed a year and a half ago. The plants are so full full and lush, #butterflies and honey #bees were flirting about everywhere. Four #blueberry bushes were full of berries. #Echium and #euphorbia in full bloom! #belandscapedesign #beautyiseveywherejustlook
