foxglove

Aah...stunning, Paul! :)

Love foxgloves one of my favourites. :-)

Old faithfuls and this one has especially deep colour. Great for bees. The sound bees make reversing out of the bells is quite distinct. Have you noticed that?

GOrgeous colour! All mine have buds but flowerinf jsut yet! i love them so easy to grow :)

What a brilliant picture, Paul - it's like a painting!

lovely colour,i do like these and want to get some but still havent got round to it yet lol:)))))

very nice Paul, lovely colour too....

Long-tongued bumble bees...that's why they're only annuals here... None of the right kind of bees!!

Wow!! this is very beautiful:-)))

Thanks all for your lovely comments :)))) I do like the willow next to it here too - not in the best place though so not clever planting as they like moist in a well drained garden but still survives well enough :)))

hi Ojibway - said on an interesting programme that bees change key going into flowers it sets all the pollen out or something

I hadn't noticed the change of key, either, Ojibway. Do they bleep, like lorries reversing?

haha Gattina :D

Don't talk to me about lorries reversing, Gattina...
...she heard it only once...but it's now my parrot's favourite noise...!!! :(

sorry Karen - but that sounds quite amusing :D

...only if it's not right next to your earhole, Paul... ;)))

lol :D

I love foxgloves, this one is sooo pretty :)

Hi Suzy - thanks :))))

Beautiful:)

Thanks Nana :)))))

Fab colour

Thanks sheilar :)))

That's the best laugh I've had all day, Karen!

Karen - I would love you to hear the scrap metal van that pollutes our ear holes - it is incredibly annoying !!!

over an hour some days!

Mine are just about out in flower.

:)))) they are special Clarice :)))

She used to talk and "sing"...now she's a lorry reversing...(not to mention the new donkey across the road)...

I used to love that bird...let's hope it's just a "phase"...

hopefully she will forget it

Lol! Or learn something new... ;)))

Maybe a telephone ringtone? There's some darned bird round here - a starling? - that's perfected that one; it's a real nuisance.

LOL! She's already got that one, Gattina...when I'm out in the garden, I have to count the number of "rings", before the voice says, "bleep! Hello!". She hasn't realised that the real phone rings four times. Of course, usually it's too late by then and I've missed the call!!

:o(

I adore foxgloves, this is lovely Paul:-)

Wow, this is pretty!

Great shot paul, stunning colours.
