This little blue storybook house with its shiny red door and matching mailbox is sweet find for Ruby Tuesday in St. Paul. Summer's lease hath all too short a date.
These Cardinal Flowers are growing in a rain garden near the lake, needing to keep their roots wet. They remind me of Indian Paintbrush found out west but are a more vibrant blue red. A bit of trivia: they're named after the red robes worn by Catholic cardinals and they aren't terribly prolific since they are pollinated by hummingbirds!

Thanks for the info about the cardinal flowers - such beauties.
Love the way that house is painted. We had similar colors on one house on the block; then the new owner re-painted. :-(
Very nice entries- the door and mailbox are charming.
Love the truth of the Balzac quote!
