Love In A Mist

Great photo. I love these, simple but complex and a lovely colour.

Thanks Sticki!
They're surprisingly complex when you look at them closely!

Exactly! Glad you took the photo and put it on here, almost reminds me of the shapes at the centre of a passion flower!

One of my favourites what a lovely blue mine did nt germinate this year.;O((

I thought you had lost your love in a mist. It is intricate.

Thanks 6d - I think that this blue one is the one to have. I'm not too sure about some of the cultivars.
This is in Sues garden - it's going to give me its seeds Lulu!

There is one thats different colours which I ve seen on goy

Not too sure about that idea 6d........

:o)) LOl

Love it!

Thanks Rbtkew!

wow...Im guessing you have a macro lens??...I love this flower..I have them too ;0)

This was taken with a standard lens Orchidpoppy.
They make an interesting subject!

Never seen such complex but beautiful flower before.You always have something to amaze us Meanie.

These are very common over here Camillia, almost weeds in fact! Sometimes we just don't look closely enough.

No Meanie I am sure that I have never seen something like this around my locality.

That surprise me - the seeds are used in Indian cookery and home medicine.

Now, I need to ask with other garden lovers about this.Do you know what is it called in India (hindi)?

Camillia, it's proper name is Nigella damascena, have a look at this link, it might help you with the answer you require .....
