Blue anemone
Not really blue, more blue violet, this anemone (a-NEH-moan-ee) is blooming WAY late, it seems to me, but I am happy to see it grace the early summer garden like this. Such a cutie.
Visit Macro Flowers Saturday and see more lovely blooms and SOOC to see more straight-out of-the-camera shots. If wandering around this site, try a new search term like Tulip or Begonia. Why not? Return to the full blog by clicking Sara’s Fave Photos above.

Beautiful macro of this lonely anemone. Though it’s blooming late, it looks so fresh and healthy. Lovely color.
Thanks for sharing this beauty on Macro Flowers Saturday!
Have a beautiful weekend!

A lovely flower and beautiful colour.
Oh that is stunning. I love it.
Blue flowers are my weakness and I can’t help but stare at it.
hello sara,
thank you for your permission. you can see your photo in my site
thanks again
Nadiyah, that’s a lovely poem! I’m pleased to help illustrate your sweet thoughts of love. Thanks again for asking if you could use the photo. I appreciate the link back to the site.
What a beautiful shot and I adore the color
It certainly is a late bloomer – but what a little beauty it is.
Very blue-tiful!
Oh Sara, that would be my very favorite flower in the garden if it were in mine!
We have so few blue garden flowers! The petals of this one look so soft!!!
This really is a lovely shade of blue.
thank you for your appreciation, Sara
I have joined you
My daughter carried white ones for her wedding. I had no idea they came in other colors.
Thanks everyone for visiting and especially for leaving a comment. Yes Wammy, they come in other colors, and are especially beautiful in the pinkish red, often appearing with white around the wonderful black center. The white, red and blue-purple variations make a fabulous grouping or bouquet, if you are so lucky to have that.
Love the romantic aura of a single flower! This is delightful!
Love the color!
Well, I am jealous! The anemone is very, very pretty.
Such a beautiful flower…Love the color blue.
I thought it’s a poppy, it’s very pretty!! Happy Sunday!
