I'm fond of the colour of this robust ivy-leaved geranium, just as I remember it from 30 years ago...
Amethyst Deceiver (Laccaria amethystine) is a common woodland mushroom, but it doesn't reveal its true amethyst beauty until you crawl on the ground and look up at them. When they are fresh and wet they look purple from above but when they are dry they fade to a very uninteresting buff colour. Apparently the caps are edible but it doesn't seem right picking something as beautiful as this.
I photographed this one in woodland near Shepley in West Yorkshire.
Pink Amethyst from Uruguay. Purchased today from @Metajaxearth, at The Gem, Mineral, Jewelry, Fossil & Bead Show in Jacksonville, Fl.
*Pink Amethyst is a variety of Amethyst that crystallizes in the form of masses, prismatic shards, botryoidal, granular, and as a druzy coating. Its pink color comes from small inclusions of Hematite within the Quartz. Pink Amethyst is relatively new to the market and can only be found in southern Brazil. There is not much scientific information on this variety of Amethyst, however, it is widely regarded as an extremely potent crystal in metaphysical communities.

▶ "Symphyotrichum x amethystinum —commonly known as the amethyst aster— is the naturally occurring hybrid species of white heath aster and New England aster, in the family Asteraceae. It is native to much of central and eastern North America, growing where the two parents are in close proximity.
The amethyst aster flowers in summer and autumn, with blue/violet petals. Considering its parentage, its leaves can resemble miniature New England Aster leaves or large, wide, clasping Heath Aster (Symphyotrichum ericoides) leaves, and the flowers can resemble small New England Aster flowers or large purple Heath Aster flowers. It grows to 3 feet (1 meter). "

aka Laccaria amethystina - it really is purple - found it next to the driveway in the grass. It's about 1 inch high. It's called the deceiver because while ostensibly it isn't poisonous, it can and does absorb arsenic from the soil, so if you eat enough of them over a period of time...well, you know.
When we stayed in Banff, we went to a lot of the crystal shops - I love amethyst and did buy a small piece to bring home.
I have been missing in action as Peter was taken to hospital by ambulance late Thursday night after suffering an episode with his health. He was rather unwell for a few days, but now seems to be on the mend, but we are not sure at this stage when he will be allowed home, so I am running back and forwards to the hospital.
