Lomelosia stellata (Starflower)

[John Liddle]

Our son sent his Mum a bouquet for Mothering Sunday which included this flower which was new to us. The head is about 1.25" in diameter. Native to southwestern Europe and North Africa.

I haven’t seen one before either, an unusual flower and a lovely pic

It’s strange what they include in with flowers now. I bought some back along there was something with blue leaves amongst them, I then realised it had been sprayed blue.
