close look at the flower, it just cant wait to spring out and flower,what is the rush? I cant show you there are 6 flowers in bud today, may be one more week I can take picture again
and the last picture is the seedlings from last year seeds produce by the parent. So it was self pollinated plant.
Wow! I LOVE the color!! Is there a common name? The leaves look similar to my african lily.
Hi LAKelly2, I dont think it has a common name, just go by Griffinia. The flowers are small and it has nice blue color. Here are more photos I took today, more flowers and pretty
Thanks! Sure is a pretty flower!
