Fall Flowers

Fall Flowers, a photo by susanvg on Flickr.

A walk in the countryside and signs of fall. The dandelions have all gone to seed and other flowers are following suit. Many are starting to dry up. These purple flowers take advantage of the September sunshine. Insects still attracted by their bright yellow centres will spread the pollen to ensure another season of blooms.

I feast my eyes on flowers as the variety blossoming changes from day to day. I don't know the name of this one, seen in someone's rock garden. I love the spiky petals. This is a flower with attitude.
