Three years ago I planted four Catawba crepe myrtle trees. They have the beautiful purple flowers. Two weeks ago they bloomed profusely, and I kept meaning to take pictures. But yesterday, I realized that I missed my chance. They have already turned that faded light purple color, and they are beginning to fall off. Too bad too, because they would have been great as a header for my blog in the spring. Oh well . . . Purple is my all time favorite color! Three years ago I planted four Catawba crepe myrtle trees.

Have you ever seen 'Foxgloves'? The ones that grow in our yard are purple, however they also come in light purple, yellow and white. Take care. As always, wonderful photos.

Interesting. I don't have any purple flowers in my garden -- just blue browellia, which is so deep blue as to be almost purple, but still doesn't quite qualify...

It was the Jackmanii Clematis and a Salvia. There were partly purpled others, butt only a few. Oh, and I had one Lilac tree too!
