Sunday Serenity


Classified a weed*,
To me, it's a beautiful,
Delightful flower.

    We had these in abundance in Missouri where I used to live. I sort of miss them now for the color. A whole field of them was just a soothing picture in my mind.

    When people say "weed" I think of large expanses of perfect grass and nitpicky people tending it...boring! Weeds always seem to be "wildflowers" to me....the more the merrier! I love Chicory! The color is so pretty!

    I agree, it's a gorgeous blue flower and would never have thought a weed!

    Thanks for the update on the ducks. I visited Charlie and I think my duck is a Muscovy like many said. I'm going to email it to him for confirmation!

    Great post!

    That weed is beautiful. My favorite "weed" is Queen Anne's Llace. I have an entire field of it near me and it is gorgeous.

    Chicory it is, then. Thanks for your comment on my blog, and for letting me know that what I thought were Bachelor Buttons are actually chicory. Lovely photo!
