Day 11 - Great Masterwort

We planted a new flowerbed this spring and this was one of its new inhabitants. I confess, I have been following the newcomers every day... a bit like a child before Christmas, going for a look every day to see how they are doing :)

These particular ones were a bit of a disappointment at first - when they started blooming, they were a pale green, not at all the lovely light purple that was promised. But as the days went by they gained more and more color. An interesting effect - the flowers I'm familiar work the other way around - so I'm happily surprised!
