Every season I venture out to find the best and brightest blue annuals, usually ending up with Lobelia which eventually wilt and die before August. This year I have kept this sky blue colored plant in the old tea kettle totally out of the sun, with good luck. . .so far. The first photo is from a window box in front of a book store in White Bear Lake with the deeper shade of blue, one I also kill every year!
Visit more flowers at Luiz Santilli's Monday meme--Today's Flowers -- a nice way to start the week.

sweet and perfect in that little blue kettle.
Lobelia is perfection!
Thanks for visiting my blog and commenting. I haven't seen yours before, and I've just spent a pleasant time surfing your posts. I hope that you are now a fully acclimated Minnesotan after arriving here 3 (?) years ago. It's great, except for the winters!!
Gorgeous!
Have a nice week!
The little tea kettle and flowers are so cute, a beautiful blue. Great photos.

What an assortment of names this Lobelia has. A clever use of the tea kettle also. A perfect match, delightful photo! Thanks for sharing.
This Lobelia is indeed sweet :-). Thank you for your visit and greetings from Croatia.
Lobelias are o beautiful with that bright blue, how could they be called by such revolting names?
Oh, the lobelia in the teapot are perfect! Loved your heron and pelican photos, too.
Both photos are nice but I think the first one is my favorite.
I am so fond of those sweet blue Lobelia! Lovely arrangement of flowers!
Thanks for visiting - and have a great week!
That's such a creative use for the old kettle! Beautiful pictures.
