BLUE MONDAY: A mix with sage

Every year I buy some plants of the annual Sage :"Salvia farinacea", to put in pots or in the border together with my roses. The flowers are really blue, and they are good-smelling.

Another really blue flower is
"Nigella damas-cena", in english called
"Love-in-a-mist", and in Sweden translated from swedish: "The-virgin-in the green".It is an annual, but every year I find some new plants again in the border. The seedcapsules are also very attractive.

I pick a bunch of sages and nigellas and a tiny rose called "Baby Faraux" - a lilacblue rose - and put them together with a really blue cloth...
...and in our kithen...
...in a vase together with other blue attributes.














Have a nice week everybody!

Så vakkert dette var!
Salvie og andre kryddervekster er flotte i buketter, og særlig sammen med roser.

Visst är det mysigt att plocka blommor till egna buketter...nästan som när man var liten.....

I'm not good at planting :-( Your flowers are beautiful. I like the love-in-the-mist. The name itself would tempt you to buy it! LOL

TACK för alla kommentarer/THANK'S for all comments!
Mia, jag har skaffat ny kamera, som jag experimenterar med. det här med ljus är spännande.
Ann-Charlotte, mm, man blir lite nostalgisk när man tänker tillbaka på vandringar på ängar och andra marker med liljekonvalj och vitsippsbuketter i händerna.
Fortsatt trevlig vecka på er allihopa!(Jag har semester...)/Have a nice week everyone!(I have my last week of vacation this summer)
Hälsn
