Violets and veronica grow like weeds in our garden and spread further each year. This delights me.

It would delight me too ;-) Wish it was Summer again *sigh*
ReplyDeleteNothing beats self-perpetuating beauties unless they're self-spreading beauties starting with the letter of the week. A great selection of V flowers in your garden, Janice. I love them all. Great shot of the bee, too.

What a vibrant 'v' post! All of the flowers are so pretty. Verbena is one of my summer favorites. Although the blooms are fabulous it is the vivid shot of the bumblebee that really catches my eye.
ReplyDeleteI wished it was the season again to see these beautiful flowers life !
ReplyDeleteWe have a very stormy weather right now. The storm was announced for the night which was very quiet and now it starts when people have to go to work ! I am still "out" with my cold !
Verbena is one of my favourites - though I didn't know of its other name - so thanks for this.
ReplyDeleteLove the bee
