Columbine

Post by Annie »

This is my all time favorite Columbine :)
The wild type :lol:
Best part about this one is I never planted it LOL.

Annie, your pic is stunning! I love those wild columbines, too. I don't have any here, will have to get some seeds from my dad's farm.
kHt...great shot, too.
