Friday flowers - pretty blue


I just adore these pale blue ixias that have been blooming up a storm alongside our driveway.


They are a mass of the palest, icy blue colour.


They're quite an old-fashioned flower and mostly now I see the bulbs in bright pink colours (which I also love).


The bulbs do so well too. I don't remember where I bought these, but it was quite a few years ago now. That little handful of bulbs has mulitplied into a mass of them now.


Just so pretty!
Have a lovely day and even better weekend.

    What a beautiful sight. It is now cold here in San Francisco so the only flowers I see are cut flowers!
