July Bride


I went to a wedding yesterday. The bride with red-gold hair was was dressed in white and her groom and attendants were dressed in purple.

I went out to my garden this morning and found the Echinacea flowers having a wedding party of their own, with attendants in purple surrounding a bride in white with red-gold hair.

(I've planted White Swan Echinacea several times in past, but have never been able to get it bloom. The seeds for these plants came from a friends garden last spring, The lone white flower is a pleasant surprise!)

  7. Interesting that others have had the same experience with white swan echinacea. This one seems healthy and is keeping right up with the purple echinaceas.

    Thanks for the compliments. I posted this photo on facebook and tagged the bride in it. :)
