Hi Lindafay~
Thanks for commenting over at my place, I just love your Nature Journal blog here, beautiful!
hmmmm... I have no idea what this flower is. It reminds me of a passion flower though, wonder if it could be related? hmmmm...;)
This looks like Love-in-a-Mist, the latin name is Nigella damascena. The seeds can be used to repel insects from your stored clothing and are also edible.
This is lovely! I just stopped in for a quick peek, but I will return often to quench my "nature thirst" (to borrow your perfect phrase for that longing of city dwellers to connect with living things).
mme labonte,
Oooh, you are right! Thank you so much. Our curiosity has been eating away at us. We will move it to the identified flowers and give you the credit, if you don't mind.
warmly,
EdithHolden (wannabe)
