Purple Lupine

How interesting these flowers are the way they bloom from the bottom to the top of the flower stalk. The individual flowers are quite unusual in shape. The second plant had one of those direct hail hit setbacks that broke off the flower stalk. As you can see the plant is not to be deterred, but is sending up two flower stalks. The entire plant is smaller; after all it had to begin again.
