As you may have understood from my posts, spring has not come very far in the region where I live. It’s a bit sad really, but at least every now and then we have some really beautiful sunny days. I hope we can finally get some warm days too when May arrives in a week.
Mondays means new theme. This week’s theme is “Growth”. This lovely blue flowers are growing right outside our apartment building. I unfortunately don’t know the name of this, so if anybody out there knows, please tell me.

It looks like a snowdrop, but blue! Only have white ones here as far as I know, so I am loving the colour!
Thank you! I’m pretty sure it’s not a snowdrop. We have the white ones here too. This blue flower looks differently in full bloom. This shot is from last year: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ingaplinga77/5697367048/
Update: you were right. I was wrong. Just because they look a bit different I was sure it wasn’t a snowdrop. Thanks. š
Wow – you sure? I know nothing of flowers so was just a lucky guess. Wish we had the blue ones š
I would say blue snowdrops for sure… we, as Eloise, have only the white ones as far as I know š love your shot!
Thanks, Joanna. As I just replied to Eloise, I’m quite sure it’s not snowdrops. Please check this link to see them in full bloom: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ingaplinga77/5697367048/
I googled them for you as well and this is a link to shutterstock photos and they are described as blue snowdrop… so … I really though it was snowdrop, what makes you think it isn’t? Maybe somebody else knows the right answer š

You’re right, Joanna. It just didn’t know the blue ones existed. And also because the white ones looks differently. Thanks! You are all so quick to help. I was going to google it myself but never got that far before you and Carissa and Eloise were all there for me. š
You are so welcome.. I think that is one of the beautiful things here on wordpress… so many people wanting to help… I love it
Yes, indeed I was wrong. As soon as I posted it I thought that the inside of the flower didn’t look right (yellow vs blue).
thanks for trying anyways, Carissa š
It’s really “bluetiful” !!!
š
haha, thanks Mathias š
I think it may be a Tufted Blue Lily. http://www.treknature.com/gallery/photo123078.htm
But maybe not.
Thanks, Carissa. But still I’m not quite sure. The photo in the link show a flower with yellow stems, my flower’s got blue ones… ah well, the search continues š
I do not know the name, but it is surely beautiful! love the color!
I hope many warm days greet you now.
Thanks so much š
The flower is framed so perfecty. I love how the one in the middle is in focus.
