      I quite like this variety of Phlox as it's a nice cool, clean white and it's looking good in August!:snork:

          Yes, I think Clematis Seed Heads are great, GA. I've got this mental image in my "camera" mind of the "perfect" image I want of a seed head but so far I've not got it:dunno::snork: I'm going to have to have a serious attempt with different kinds of natural light and times of day to see if I can get near what I see in my mind.:heehee:

            I think seed heads have a quality of their own and some can be equally as beautiful as the flowers themselves.

              l love the way the Seed Head cases of Alliums break open and wait for the wind, bird or animal to knock them on to the ground.

              That's such a clever design and method of propagating plants..........makes even an "unbeliever" like me think!!:scratch::snork:
