Description

Among the flowers in the garden I find several wildflowers, like this cobweb houseleek (Sempervivum arachnoideum) blooming here with bright flowers. The name originates from the threads on the leaves of the rosettes. These flowers can be found on rocky places in the Alps. Enjoy your Sunday! Minolta X-700 (Fuji Sensia 100, 80 mm) Thanks for your attention and your always valuable comments P.S. Sorry for my absence, I've been drowning in work but soon I hope to catch up in your galleries!

This is fascinating! I love flowers that grow in the mountains, and in otherwise harsh conditions. They are usually the most beautiful of all. Excellent image!
