I recently saw fields of these Virginia Bluebells in a woodland setting (in VA!) and was amazed they were 3' tall! Have never grown them but now want to! And, sounds like they are pretty tough and hardy! Pretty capture, Mr. S.

Oooh, I think I said this last year, but I love it when you post photos of these flowers. They take me right back to my childhood.

Also, I like the transmitted light on the flower petals - those were gorgeous. I like all those photos, btw.

Those are quite lovely. Will have to see if I can find some seeds for those.
