Beauty

An absolutely gorgeous flower was blooming outside one of the many shops along the Arts and Crafts Trail just outside Gatlinburg, in the Smokies, back in May during my visit there.

Unfortunately, I have searched and searched and can find no I.D. on this beauty. If you know, please share. We have been in a drought here for several weeks now. The good news . . . it's raining and should be all weekend and I'm ok with that. ENJOY!

    It is a nigella blossom, also called love-in-mist, Carol. There is a small shot of one on my sidebar, but it is not a double like yours.

    1. Thank you Sandy. It was driving me batty what the name of this flower was. So glad to finally know. Carol
