2/4/22

 It's Friday, TGIF!  Today's image is of one of my stalks of  Salvia catching some lovely afternoon light.  I loved the bubbly bokeh behind and so I chose this photo for today because Friday's Are Bokehlicious!

  1. Very nice Shelly

    On first quick glance I thought it was purple loosestrife

    1. Thank you Jim! Had to Google that, yes, very similar at first look.

  2. Purple loosetrife is an invasive specie that we see all over the place up here, especially in damp areas.

    1. Yes, invasive here too. I have some in my small pond but it is in a pot and cannot spread. When I bought it it was labeled as a pond lily! Uh, no. I didn't know what to look for at the time. I have kept it because it was several years before I knew what it really was and bees and butterflies really seem to like it, plus, as I said, it can't spread.

  3. Lovely looking flower. Too bad about it being an invasive one.

    1. Thank you Tom. This one, Salvia, is not invasive, that was another one that looks similar, Loosetrife.
