Purple Pink
Someone living nearby has a hedge of these purple-pink* flowers. It's a reasonably long stretch and I was trying to get a perspective shot so it looked like they went on forever. I didn't quite get it right, but it was still kind of pretty. Enjoy.

It looks like about 9977CC to me.
ReplyDeletePurple flowers are supposed to be particularly attractive to bees and other insects that can see into the UV range. I wonder what they look like in ultraviolet?
We have a bush of this flower plant and we do not know the name. The flowers are blooming around the year. Could anyone tell me what is it?
