Very Clever Blue post ... thanks for the blue tunes and tones... could that be a type of salvia?? I have seen it might have had it but that blue is not in my life no more. I enjoy hearing the music... I know I should knw but who is the singer? We are having a heat wave right now... could use some cool blue of the ocean! Sure my blue lilac, forget-me-not and orris iris will drown in the near 90

I'm with MMD. The Forgetia is 'Crater Lake Blue' veronica. Have it myself, but it's not blooming yet here.

I do so hope that the Amsonia a friend from Maryland sent me (dug from her garden) is that variety. I just love it ... I'm such a pushover for blue flowers!

I love your blues. We are out of the blues and into the yellows and oranges. How I wish for forget-me-nots like yours. Are the Amsonias wildflowers? I have those in my wild areas but they were very poor this year. I sometimes think about trying to dig them up. Are they bulbs?

Does "Veronica" ring a bell? (The flower, not the song.) My garden was singing the blues, but now it's segueing into the hot pinks, rubies and purples.

You crack me up. You sing blues songs while walking through the garden? I'm just working like a demon right now trying to mulch everything before vacation and spring fling. LOL. I like the song.~~Dee

Forgetzia azure -- thanks for that big laugh this morning! I have some of that plant, but it looks a little different than your variety. It has a relative in my garden, Forgetzia magenta.

We love the blues around here, both musical and floral. My garden, as usual, is sporting a rainbow of multicolors. I have always aspired to having a "White garden" or a "Pink garden" or

Love the Forgetia, from the picture it looks like some kind of flax. My blues lean purple here, but it means the butterflies and bees love them so I don't mind. Even if the picture on the tag is blue though, it seems to want to be purple. Must just be my crazy yard. Love the song, too.

I love my forget-me-nots, pretty little flower that is well behaved and a gentle soul. My iris are not blooming yet, but we have big buds. And I saw that my false indigo is up with vigor too.....no flowers yet. In NW PA we must be a tiny bit behind you.

Maybe your Abraham Lincoln lilac will bloom next year and it is suppose to have a wedgewood blue bloom. We have two planted.

Blues seem to be more popular this year than in the years past around here. Very nice.

Love your blues Carol - down here in Melbourne (Australia, not Florida!) in late autumn my garden is all about the blues, but nothing as delicate as yours; here the blues are sung by salvias, succulents, plumbago and euphorbias.

2009-05-20T07:24:41.751-04:00

My garden sings the blues a little, Carol, but nothing like the profusion of delicates that you have surrounding you. They are lovely. I'm particularly fond of the "Forgetia azure!" (I have a lot of those in every color -- so glad you named them for me!)

Hi Carol .. My garden in the "Blues" too and it is beautiful .. can't beat Jack Frost for looking the most handsome devil that he is : )
