The lupins are coming to an end, but still provide a good show

I just love the lupins. I have no success growing them myself, and yet the blue and purple (and occasionally a few pink and white) varieties grow wild on the roadsides and fields here in June - like crazy! And they are not even native plants here.

Very pretty! And yes, you framed them well!

We saw a lot taller ones then we get on our trip across N. C. weekend before last!
