As all gardeners know true blue flowers are difficult to find and even more difficult to photograph as they always look purple or lavender. I have bluebells all along my fence in the backyard, they are remind me of spring and May alters when I was growing up.
The first two photos are of bluebells, they are a wildflower found in the American midwest, they bloom in spring, after blooming the foilage dies down.
Lucky Ruth! We still have snow and ice, I can't wait to see some green.
Yes I took all those photos, Sally, thanks for looking at my pictures on Webshots. Makes me sad when I go back and look at my Jessi Belle who I lost in July of 2002, I still miss that dog. I miss all my pets but she was really special.
Thanks for visiting my blog.Your comment made me go to your blog,and I'm glad I did that b'coz all the photographs are breathtaking.Simply marvellous!!
The first one is of the blue columbine and the second a sky blue delphinium. Probably the bluest of the blue flowers would be the Meconopsis betonicifolia the Himalayan poppy but difficult to grow I understand so have put off buying a plant. Here's a link to a picture of one. http://www.thimblefarms.com/15pren.html

Stunning flowers; we have blue crocus and anemone blanda at the moment...the delphiniums are just starting to peep out from the soil.
I recognise the convolvulus and the delphinium, but what are the first two photos? Great photos, by the way.

Your pics make me ache for spring!
Lovely photos. The posting had me a moment, as I was also planning one on blue flowers! Mine are tropical, though.
Here are links to two of my blogs with blue flowers.
