many colours

after self crossing and self seeding its amazing how many different colour combinations the aquilegia will come up with, I think I origionally had a dark purple one and double pink.

All are beautiful, of course, but I especially love the blue of the middle one and then that last one is pure divine!

I love aquilegias too, they are a bit 'promiscous' (sp?)LOL! Such happy crossings though are they not?
Reading about your beans and peas, I sowed some beans and courgettes last Wednesday and they are already sprouting! Reminds me of a saying taken from 'The Country Diary of an Edwardian Lady', 'June damp and warm, does the farmer no harm.' Sums it up perfectly for me!
Love your photography by the way, reminds me of my visits to Scotland.
