It's taken me all day to get my butt outside for todays picture! This flu bug must be peaking soon it's day 5! Sounds like I'm whining :)
Cornflower also known Bachelor's Button is a drought tolerant annual, native to Europe, which has naturalized throughout North America. The original flower color is blue, but it is now available in white, pink and red. In folklore, cornflowers were worn by young men in love; if the flower faded too quickly, it was taken as a sign that the man's love was not returned! I'm guessing that's how it became known as Bachelor's Button, but it is only my guess :)
