Angelonia

I arrived back in Arkansas very tired and very hot. Most of my plants were in great need of watering, so I set up the sprinklers with the hope that a good soak would make everything feel better. This one plant I put in a container with several other flowers including a lantana and vinca. This particular pot was thriving, so I decided to use the Agelonia as my first vase cutting. It is such a pretty little flower. I wish I could capture the inner beauty of the flower, but my little camera would not do it justice. The green leaves in the background are a lirope from my flower bed.

I love that you took the photo on one of your log cabin blocks. How blue your vase looks against the purple!

Isn't it interesting that one could think this is a larger vase without some perspective?
