Marilyn, those are larkspur. They've naturalized in the garden. I edited all but the dark blue-violet. They're beautiful with the poppies in the spring. Lovey dubby I'll see if I can find a pic. Big Grin

Thank you @Baja_Costero, @krobra, @lovemyhouse, @Marilyn, @pardalinum, and @TBGDN for the thumbs up!!!

Dirt, aren't they awesome? I wish I could grow delphiniums too but they struggle here. Maybe that's for the best so I can spend my money on irises. Hilarious!

I do have a thing for orange and blue/purple combos! Lovey dubby Yes, I would love to help!!

Thank you so much Arlene! It's been a fun project. Smiling

And thank you @dirtdorphins, @pirl, @Frenchy21, @greene, and @plantmanager for the thumbs up!

@Marilyn, here are a few pics of the larkspur, taken this year (top) and in 2011. Still have both violets in the garden, but nixed the pink.

And here's the full pic of the banner. The brown leaves are poppies which have gone to seed. Need to save them for the finches! (You can see the one poppy stem bent over from the weight of the finch landing on it.)
