OT what is this flower?
Since I know quilters are experts on a variety of
things can anyone name this flower? Some are white and some go to blue. I think they came in an assortment DH planted last year. TIA, Taria http://home1.gte.net/res6mc9p/strangeflower.html |

vines in our yard. Pauline "Taria" wrote in message news:8RTfe.17367$dw1.3402@trnddc02... Since I know quilters are experts on a variety of things can anyone name this flower?

link should work now. I think it is just an annual and it
doesn't climb. Taria Pauline O'Connell wrote: It looks like a clematis to me - but I'm not an expert We have clematis vines in our yard.

I see them now. They aren't a clematis tho I don't know what they are. I
have some that came up after I scattered a wild flower mix about 5 years ago. -- Mary http://community.webshots.com/user/mardor1948 "Pauline O'Connell" wrote in message . .. : It looks like a clematis to me - but I'm not an expert We have clematis : vines in our yard. : : Pauline : : "Taria" wrote in message : news:8RTfe.17367$dw1.3402@trnddc02... : Since I know quilters are experts on a variety of : things can anyone name this flower? : Some are white and some go to blue.

Did it die down and reseed itself? While it looks a little like a clemantis, I don't think it is. I lived in California most my life, and you can grow vertually everything there, from desert to rain forest, and I have never seen it, It is certainly beautiful. Maybe its a wild flower Sometimes you get an assortment of wildflower seeds in a packet. Kay |

Love in the Mist.
I got a whole packet of it this year. That's how I knew : ) Had some that were in a 'Butterfly Attracting Flowers' package a couple of years ago and I liked them.(Had to look them up then as I didn't know what they were--package had a list of flowers that was in it) Can't remember if they have a scent or not. They are taller this year--maybe a different variety of them? Butterfly "Taria" wrote in message news:8RTfe.17367$dw1.3402@trnddc02...

Thank you Butterfly. You know them all. What a wonderful name for
such a pretty little flower. DH planted the mix last year and they reseeded. When I got back from a quilt show Sat. DH had some in a bouquet he had picked for me. The name makes them all the sweeter : ) They are growing like weeds. Here's some info if anyone else is interested. http://www.seedsofknowledge.com/nigella.html Thanks everyone for looking. Butterfly is a top notch flower pro. Wish she was my neighbor! Taria Butterfly wrote: Love in the Mist. I got a whole packet of it this year.

I call them Alien plants, because after the flower goes to a seed pod,
it looks like something from outer space!!! The seed pod gets about an inch or so big, with those little antenna things sticking out. Great for dried flower arranging. I just love them!!! ...... and good thing because they will self-seed all over the place and even grow in poor soil. Some are pink, some are white and some are blue. I think they are also called Devil in the Mist, or Love in the Mist. We live in Western Washington. I'd be happy to collect seeds for anyone who has an insane desire for weird plants! |
