Heaven, I'm in heaven...

Yes, as is so beautifully sung by Ella and Louis in 'Cheek to Cheek'...

How not to feel so when you can see flowers of blue right in your own space?

Yes, the borage has got to be one of the most fascinating flowers I know...

They self seed in our potager and we do nothing but enjoy its beauty... 

And of course, its taste too... 

Likewise, the poppy self seeds just as well...

It has adapted very well to our potager... 

The 'wild' oxalis is a tiny flower...

And a very pretty wild flower at that...

The lilac flowers never fail to bring joy to us each spring...

Such a lovely 'feminine' pink... 

My missus was attracted to this flower from the hills...

She brought back a plant and woah...

The Japanese name is 'Uma no ashi gata'...

Literally, 'the shape of a horse foot', apparently from the shape of the leaves...

In English, simply Meadow buttercup... 

Was taken aback to see this clinging on a tree...

Wing-span was about 10 centimeters as it is...

Apparently, one of its wings was chipped...

Which meant that I could take my time to record its beauty... 

Don't you just love the colors of the swiss chard?

Chards belong to the same family as spinach...

We have several colors... white, cream, yellow, pink...

Think the white and cream ones taste the best... 

Now, what do you do when you have to harvest all the remaining carrots because you need the space for the next crop?

The answer is here...

Flowers to sooth the soul...

This very attractive flower is called Edgeworthia Chrysantha...

Was collecting wood for our stove when it caught my eye...

In Japanese, it is simply called 'Mitsu mata' for the simple fact that the branches almost always split out into threes...

Native to south China...

The Japanese apparently use their bark to make paper...

Our mimosa plants are flowering...

The ball-like flowers are very tricky to photograph...

The bees love them so there must be some nectar in those little balls...

Wifey likes this hyacinth plant...

Native to the Mediteranean area...

The blue is so, blue...

We have some 'native' oxalis plants growing in potager...

But my missus bought this specimen from the store...

Quite pretty, and the blooms curl up after they are done flowering... 

And this specie does not spread wildly like the other species...

The muscari in our potager is rather stunted, but very cute all the same, especially the bottomest blooms...

The combination of sparkling blue with a dash of white... wooh, lovely...

Also called grape hycinth...

Native to Eurasia...

Attended a 'thank you' party organized by a graduating class of nurses...

And received a bouquet of flowers...

Thought I'd record this pretty garbera flower before it wilts away...

And why not this white one as well, I thought...

Aren't you amazed at how perfectly shaped these flowers are?
