Outdoor Wednesday


Today I am linking up with Outdoor Wednesday, as I wanted to tell you about one of my favourite flowers in the garden, the Scabious flower.




I love the colours here of soft lavender blue and lilac.  Apparently, there is a species with a creamy flower, but I have never actually seen that one.  They are perennial, so will come up year after year and, most importantly, they will flower from April to the end of October.

The photos here were taken in the garden a couple of days ago.




To me, they are a real cottage-garden flower and I love to have lots of them in the garden, either in the borders or in tubs.  


Do you have any particular favourites in your garden?
