We don't have this one but I do grow the tropical version,the Brazilian Bachelor Button (Centratherum intermedium). More purple tones but a butterfly magnet if ever there was one.
ReplyDeleteLovely color!
ReplyDeleteBachelor Buttons are so nice plants. It is rare to have a true blue flowering plant in the garden, but these guys sure deliver. Very lovely photography, too, Tatyana! Thanks for another great post!
ReplyDeleteChristina
Love the color! And the photography! Give us tips!
ReplyDeleteI love blue bachelor buttons. The red is also quite nice.... more like a deep pink.
ReplyDeleteA very stunning blue! Not a flower I see planted (or think to plant) very often anymore. A shame, as the blooms really are lovely.
ReplyDeleteSo pretty!
ReplyDeleteSuch a great blue.
ReplyDeleteSoooooo beautiful!
ReplyDeleteAnnelie
My bachelor's button flower is so different from yours which is so much more prettier.
ReplyDeleteI love how you have captured the true blue beauty of this flower...stunning photos
ReplyDeleteBlue turns any flower into exotic beings....
ReplyDeleteJust as blue as blue can be. Dazzling photos, Tatyana. What a treat.
ReplyDeleteOh-so-pretty! My bb's got choked out this year by the wildly sociable crops of rose campion and shasta daisies. Not next year though.
ReplyDeleteLove that blue! Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThat is one fantastic camera!
