Friday Bliss #40 - Blue Beauties


Despite varying weather, a lot is happening in the garden this week, too. 
Maybe you can help me in identifying this dark purple geranium?
I think it is Geranium magnificum - Tarhakurjenpolvi, but it might also be 
Geranium himalayense - Idänkurjenpolvi. But which, I don’t know for sure. 
I have several of these and this one in a sunny spot is the first to bloom.




I went sightseeing near home. Visited once again the artist community around Lake Tuusula. 
Our much respected national writer Aleksis Kivi  died in this tiny cottage 1872.
His Seven Brothers is the first significant novel written in Finnish.

Other plant joys of the week 24:


This summer I have been a bit lazy in making bouquets for the terrace,
but here a sunny one in contrasting colours.

Wishing you a beautiful weekend! - Kaunista viikonloppua!

  3. Liebe Riitta,

    die Bilder von Eurem Storchschnabel sind traumhaft schön, ich mag dieses Blau total gerne. Wir haben den Storchschnabel Rozanne und er steht in voller Blüte.

    Auch Deine Collage gefällt mir wieder sehr, sehr hübsch auch Dein Blumenstrauß.

    Ein sommerliches Wochenende
    wünscht Dir

  9. Your blue geranium is pretty. We only have the pink variety in our garden although I have seen the blue in neighbourhood gardens here. Your flower display is wonderful - so natural-looking. Lake Tuusula is picturesque. Thank you for the linkup which I was happy to join this week. All the best for the weekend to you and yours.
