The thread titled Flowers of Supertopo seems to have vanished.

It is "no longer available for reply."

That's just a shame.

*tsk*

But flowers are ephemeral, are they not?

Why would someone delete a thread (well, their first post in a thread) about flowers? Bizarre.

A beautiful cheerful rebirth to the flowers.

Anita, by searching 'purple flower bush' I learn that the flowers you asked about are a type of budleja sometimes called butterfly bush. They smell like honey to me.




edit:


Anita! Did you know how funny that amputated bush would look, here? Why did you take that picture?

There are butterfly bushes all around the Chateau. I'll see if I can get some pictures.

And yes, they do attract butterflies.

Anita, do you know why they call it a "moss rose"?

I have a Rugosa in my yard with flowers just like that one that are so fragrant. A couple years ago there was a ball of moss growing on one of the stems. Last year there were two or three. This year there are a dozen or so of these mossy clumps. My neighbor is a gardener and he has never seen such a thing.

All the talk about your private gardens is making me cry when I think of what I had to give up.
It is sooooo bittersweet to see this shot.

I need flowers to cheer me up. :0(
