Description
Yes, I know, I am addicted!
The garden centre, close to home, is a wonderful place to wander quietly and then have an iced cappucino after work and the long hot drive home.
Yesterday, just as I arrived, they were unloading a truck full of the most
amazingly-coloured lupins I have ever seen!.
Despite my addiction, I only bought four.........oh, yes, and a wonderful baby blue and violet coloured delphinium.
(I HAD to, ...they were on sale!)
The purple/yellow one will be a gift, (unless it ends up like the Apricot nectar rose one year ago) and the pink/white, the blue/blue, and the salmony/cerise-red one are to brighten dark corners of my garden.......... Don't laugh, or clap, THROW MONEY! (joking!)
For this shot, I simply put the pots out on my suddenly scorched lawn....... Thanks for your visit.

I love lupin and the colors in these are just beautiful! I have never seen a purple/yellow one but if I ever do I'm going to buy it. I can see why you bought these.

Oh I do so miss my garden - watching all the new growth come to life each year, deciding which plants to buy and where to put them to best suit the garden and my visual curiosity!! You are so lucky to have a wealth of beauty surrounding you dear Chris and these lupins, I'm sure, will brighten up all of your dark corners brilliantly. Hugs xx

Well done, Chris! Don't let anyone make you feel guilty, they're usually the folk who spend all their time off cleaning the car, or the carpet, or the oven; or drinking, eating or watching the box. Your habit is normal and healthy!

I have never, ever, seen plants like these during my tons of years on this planet! They are absolutely magnificent, and your wonderful photograph really does justice to them! The clarity, colors and composition in this shot are beyond my ability to describe. Will "gorgeous" do? And all along I thought lupines had something to do with wolves.
