Cornflower is herbaceous plant that belongs to the daisy family.
It originates from Europe, but it can be found in many countries around the world today (it is especially common and widespread in North America and Australia). Cornflower tolerates various types of soil. It can grow exposed to full sun or in the partial shade.

Not sure if I am happy with the ME but I do like the color palette.
One day at a time...
Be well dear Flickr friends:)
These little flowers grew from a bag of wildflower seeds that I planted in a pot, along with Cosmos that are really tall... so I put hardware cloth around the pot for support... and these little flowers found their way out to show their faces!!
Proctor Road Switch with two tunnel motors grinds up Proctor Hill with a loaded train of limestone for Minorca. Fall leaves are at peak color at Bachelor's Curve.
One of the many names for this gorgeous wild flower that I've always known as Herb Robert.
Other names are Granny-Thread-the-Needle, Pink Pinafores, Robin Red Breast and (not so great!) Stinking Robert.
It's been popping up everywhere here, adding a bright splash of pink to the grass verges.

Many thanks to all who take the time to view, comment and favoring my images. Enjoy the day.
Flower gardeners can’t go wrong with the old-fashioned annual cornflower (Centaurea cyranus). This plant's double 1 1/2-inch blooms resemble miniature carnations and are easy to grow. Originally a native European and Asian pasture flower, cornflower was largely eradicated in its natural habitat by the use of modern herbicides due to the fact that it can reseed rampantly if not kept in check. Nevertheless, everyday gardeners should be awarded at least one "can’t-fail plant" in their garden, making this lightly fragrant addition perfect for a beginner’s landscape.
Cornflower's delicate papery discs are surrounded by bracts that flower atop slim stems of narrow gray-green leaves. Mature plants will reach a height of up to 48 inches, and a spread of 12 inches wide in all growing zones. Dense bright blue blooms last from spring through midsummer. This species also boasts several cultivars offering pink, white, and crimson flowers, as well.
A Bachelor Button in the wild was the object of my interest and in flew a pollinator. Wouldn't it be wonderful if we could live this simply?
Thank you for your generous comments and visits, they are all very much appreciated. Have a lovely day!

Bachelor's button (Centaurea cyanus) is a lightly fragrant, self-seeding wildflower native to Europe and Asia. Also known as cornflower, the most common variety boasts bright blue flowers and tall, sturdy stems. However, there are several varieties and unique cultivars with colors ranging from pink and white to purple and black.
Mt. Bachelor is one of the most popular ski destinations in the Pacific Northwest.
"Mount Bachelor, formerly named Bachelor Butte, is a stratovolcano atop a shield volcano in the Cascade Volcanic Arc of central Oregon. Mount Bachelor is so called because it "stands apart" from the Three Sisters (below), a group of three volcanic mountains that are northwest of Mount Bachelor."

This black and white photo is of an original screen-printed poster with an image of Marcel Duchamp holding part of his famous artwork, The Large Glass. Original photo and screen print by British artist Richard Hamilton at his studio in Highgate, London, and now in a collection at the V&A in London. This part of the Large Glass artwork was called the Oculist Witnesses.
Original Duchamp artwork 1915-23, reconstructed by Richard Hamilton 1965, for a Tate Gallery retrospective exhibition and co-signed by Duchamp at the opening in 1966.
The Large Glass is also known as "The Bride Stripped Bare by Her Bachelors, Even."
Duchamp and Hamilton were friends, and Hamilton reconstructed The Large Glass because the original had become too fragile to travel.

A bit of a different angle on Proctor Hill as recently returned 909 leads an empty ore train past Bachelor's Curve on Proctor Hill. This spot is on list for fall, as it always is along the Lake Superior maple belt.
Early morning sun on Sparks Lake with Mt. Bachelor in the background. A bit of smoke from nearby forest fires dampens the image vibrancy.
Thanks for the visits, faves and comments its greatly appreciated.

Another "cool" image for a hot summer day. Walking thru the snow and slush this day is a refreshing memory.
Mount Bachelor is so called because it "stands apart" from the Three Sisters, a group of three volcanic mountains that are northwest of Mount Bachelor.
Mount Bachelor ski area operates a chairlift during the summer as well as during the ski season making it the only major Cascade volcano with a chairlift to the summit. Nationally known, the resort is one of the largest in the Pacific Northwest.
Have a wonderful Wednesday!
