Cynthia, I enjoyed your beautiful blue flowers. Blues and whites always catch my attention in a garden. I also have those blue forget-me-not type flowers. Mine have spread here and there, and I don’t mind a bit. 🙂 They look especially nice planted with red tulips.

A lovely range of Blues, Cynthia.
Love the pretty blue Cynoglossum – I like to grow a similar South African native, Anchusa capensis, with intense forget-me-not type blue flowers in summer too.
Wow! I didn’t even know there were that many blue flowers! I think maybe the only blues I have are forget-me-nots and annual lobelia. Your clematis are gorgeous–the seem to see my house as “death row.”
You love blue too and you certainly have some beautiful blue plants. I am very impressed by your Clematis.
Cynoglossum amabile is such a beautiful true blue. It means ‘Hound’ s Tongue’. I wonder why it is called that. Such a pretty flower.
Is this your garden, Cynthia? Looks lovely and very romantic, so no reason for the blues 😉 What’s the name of the first clematis? Looks like one of the integrifolias to me. I love all herbaceous clems and think they’re much underplanted. Love the morning glory too, one of the few and rare true blues.

Thank you, Wendy. My regular forget-me-nots are like a soft border of pale blue clouds in front of each bed in spring. Heavenly.

I love when you use big Latin words!
Cynoglossum is the Chinese forget-me-not?
Heavenly blue. So many shades and shapes. There is no end to the creativity of beauty in the floral world.
And to the number of discoveries. A garden is a blessing.
My favorite color!
Wonderful blue flowers. Morning glory is a weed here .. But I just love salvia and those ever happy forget-me-nots.
Me too, Julie.
Your blues make me happy! But how is it that you have morning glories blooming already? Mine never bloom before August.
Our morning glories have been blooming for a couple weeks or more now.
Actually, even the Japanese anemones, that normally bloom in mid to late August, are getting ready to bloom already. Weird, eh?
I do love the blue shades of flower, they always cool down the garden a notch or two in summer. I think your forget-me-not is Cynoglossum amabile
Such a wonderful variety of flowers and colors in your garden Cynthia. Thanks for sharing it. 🙂
Thank you, Brad.
my pleasure

Hi Kerry:
Some of mine are a cross between blue and purple, but the blue comes through loud and clear.
what a gorgeous way to have the blues…but with some many beautiful flowers, the real Blues will quickly disappear ;0) xo Johanna
It was such a surprise to realize that I have so many blues. I have even more than I showed here.
You love blue too and you certainly have some beautiful blue plants. I am very impressed by your Clematis.

It must be the shape of the leaves – what thinkst?
Do you have many blues in your own wonderful garden?
Your garden is looking wonderful! I enjoy viewing the flowers I cannot grow in the South.
I guess it works both ways, eh?
down south you have some marvelous flowers that we can’t grow here.
Thanks for the compliments.
True!
Beautiful blues! 😀
excellent… <3 we call it in French: bleu royal! 🙂
I think there’s something particularly beautiful about blue flowers.
